British Climber Indicted and Faces Fine for Climbing Lotte World Tower

I am sure this guy will happily pay the fine considering he probably got a lot of social media attention and followers to pay for it:

Prosecutors have summarily indicted a British free climber on charges of ascending up to the 72nd floor of the tallest skyscraper in Seoul without permission last month, legal sources said Tuesday.

George King-Thompson, 24, was taken into custody while climbing up the outer wall of the 123-story Lotte World Tower in southern Seoul with his bare hands on June 12, before he was escorted inside the building and captured by police.

The Seoul Eastern District Prosecutors Office has summarily indicted him, seeking a punishment of 5 million won ($3,864) in fines for obstructing business.
