Checking in with Tom Durante. Tom runs us through a wild climb in NYC, getting trapped on top a sky scraper in a lightning storm and walking out like it’s no big deal. Then the story gets wild.

Tom Durante shares an all-time adventure exploring NYC rooftops. From dodging tight security and weathering a lightning storm atop skyscrapers to celebrating his photography with a confetti cannon on a Times Square billboard, Tom gives us a rare glimpse into the world of urban exploration and photography.

This one has tales of trespassing, evading security, and the invaluable lessons learned through meticulous planning and execution. And of course the legend of the Neptune Diner (RIP) and where to grab food in NYC after you get the shot.

You can find Tom on IG @TOMDURANTE.
