We had the privilege to watch at first from the SE corner of the building and later as he climbed by the the observation deck on the 89th floor. Hair raising stuff I'll never forget.

Do you know if there was any guidelines to not "disturb" during his climb? Was shocked by how many people tried to distract him during that climb

They kept most folks pretty far away, you needed a pass or to work in one of the offices to get really close.

I was also terrified when ppl would engage with him directly lol

He needs the ultimate focus, there can be no mistakes. That's amazing you got to see the actual climb!

Do you have any photos on social media?

Two good ones my gf took here: https://www.linkedin.com/posts/gb-cc_my-desperate-attempt-to...

The second one is from the inside of the observatory (89th floor). Folks with media passes were allowed to get closer so that's the crowd you see pictured. He's climbing in the background.
