俄籍攀高情侣登顶帝国大厦求婚,展示和平标语后被捕
一对以无保护攀爬摩天大楼闻名的俄罗斯情侣,在纽约帝国大厦天线顶端展开和平横幅并上演求婚,随后被警方拘留,面临多项指控。
当地时间7月1日中午,两名身着黑衣、蒙面的人士攀上纽约帝国大厦天线顶端,在443米高空展开一幅写有“当爱的力量战胜对权力的爱,世界将知晓和平”的黑色横幅。据直升机航拍画面及警方后来公布的执法记录仪视频,两人随后下至天线下方一处平台,其中男子单膝跪地,似向女子求婚,二人拥抱亲吻。纽约警方随后将两人拘留,未造成人员受伤。
警方确认二人为33岁的安吉拉·尼古拉乌和32岁的伊万·比尔库斯(又名伊万·库兹涅佐夫),均为俄罗斯籍,居住在新泽西州。据美国哥伦比亚广播公司(CBS)等媒体援引执法部门消息,两人面临入室盗窃、鲁莽危害他人安全、刑事破坏、非法侵入及扰乱治安等多项指控。两人以无保护攀爬全球各地摩天大楼闻名,曾于2024年成为奈飞纪录片《空中行者:一个爱情故事》的主角。
目前尚不清楚两人如何绕过安检进入不对公众开放的天线区域。初步调查线索显示,他们可能通过103层一处用于水箱维修的舱口进入,但此说法未获官方证实。大厦管理方声明称,这一“未经授权的事件”未对租户、访客或观景台游客构成危险,观景台在事件中一度被疏散。
这对情侣此前曾在多国进行类似攀爬,包括2016年攀爬中国天津高银金融117大厦,并在当地被短暂拘留。其行为在社交媒体上吸引大量关注,也引发对公共安全及城市地标安保漏洞的讨论。帝国大厦自“9·11”事件后安保严密,此次事件正值纽约因世界杯赛事和独立日庆典而人流密集之际。
纽约警方表示调查仍在进行,指控有待最终确定。两人在社交媒体上发布了求婚照片,但当局未透露更多细节。大厦管理方则强调,其观景台仍是“进行最难忘求婚的合法且实用场所”。

Two young Russians perform a romantic and courageous act, but are unjustly punished by a hostile American system.
Perspective is reversed: the act is framed as romantic and the illegality as persecution. The narrative of 'Russophobia' is invoked to present the arrest as political.
It omits that the climbers violated US private property and safety laws, and that their arrest followed standard procedures.
The climbers broke the law and must face consequences; public safety comes before the romantic gesture.
Complexity is reduced to a simple legal violation, emphasizing individual responsibility and the need for deterrent punishment.
It omits the cultural context of the act as a romantic expression and possible disproportionality of the law enforcement response.
The United States persecutes young Russians for a romantic gesture while ignoring far more serious crimes.
It contrasts the arrest with alleged impunity for other crimes, creating a narrative of hypocrisy and discrimination.
It does not mention that the act violated safety regulations and that any other cases cited are not documented in the materials.
