Remember that dramatic acrobatic stunt on the Williamsburg Bridge this past summer? Seanna Sharpe and magician Thomas “Savage” Skinner descended from a height of 300 feet, attracting a big crowd, before being arrested. At the time we posted video of the daring (and illegal) feat. But making the rounds on the web this week — a very elaborate (Hollywood worthy) video production. As Gothamist noted, the acrobats got off relatively easy. While initially charged with a felony (reckless endangerment), Sharpe and Skinner ultimately walked away with a misdemeanor. According to the video, they accepted a plea deal, agreeing to five free performances for children (presumably NOT on the Williamsburg Bridge).
