A couple has been taken into custody after climbing the very top of New York City's Empire State Building, before getting engaged.

Russian nationals Angela Nikolau, 33, and Ivan Beerkus, 32, unfurled a large banner at the tip of the skyscraper's needle that read: "When the power of love beats the love of power the world knows peace."

Beerkus got down on one knee and proposed to Nikolau, presenting a ring. They kissed before descending.
