Protesters of anti-capitalism descended on Manhattan on Friday – and the videos caught one climbing a Chase Bank before making an epic dive.
Filmed by FreedomNews.TV and posted on Twitter shows a demonstrator climbing the bank building on Madison Boulevard between East 46th and 47th Streets as drums and chants are heard, as well as a man shouting at the protester to “come down!”
Another protester is seen disappointing the building with spray paint, while the other demonstrator continues to climb just before 5 p.m.
The climbing protester suddenly lost his grip and fell on the sidewalk, the video shows.
Other protesters rushed to him while he was injured on the ground, before the black paint inside a spray leaked from his bag and all over the sidewalk.
The first respondents then arrived on the scene to help the protester.
The man was eventually taken to Bellevue Hospital, officials said.
