Aerialists rappel down Transamerica Pyramid in San Francisco

NBC Universal, Inc.

Multiple aerialists were seen Monday rappelling down the Transamerica Pyramid in San Francisco.

The aerialists who took part in the permitted performance are members of BANDALOOP, an Oakland-based vertical dance company.

San Francisco police confirmed that the performance was permitted.

The daring performance was not well publicized and created enough concern for police to release a statement on social media.

"Do not be alarmed, enjoy the show!" police said in a post on X, formerly known as Twitter.

BANDALOOP said it has taken its act to other buildings around the world, including a recent performance on St. Paul’s Cathedral in London.
