'After I talked some sanity into his head — he's not a stupid kid, he's a pretty bright kid, he's not stupid — after I talked to him, he said 'I'll come down,' Boyd said.
Angulo's previous publicity stunts include swimming out to the Sandy-damaged Jet Star roller coaster off Seaside Heights in 2013 and climbing onto a floating ice disk with a pickaxe and chainsaw in Westbrook, Maine in 2019. His effort in 2019 earned him the nickname 'some idiot from New Jersey' in a headline from a local radio station.
Had Angulo not climbed down on his own, Boyd said state troopers were ready to climb up and get him.
Boyd said Angulo would be facing charges of criminal trespass, but that 'We're going to get him help, we're going to get him some mental help.'
