After climbing 45 feet to the top of the sign, Zdorovetskiy momentarily lost his grip on the banner and climbed back down to retrieve it. He remained on the sign for a few more minutes before coming back down and being arrested by officers were waiting for him. The whole thing was caught on camera by several news teams including ABC7.
