Jared Leto becomes first person to climb Empire State Building in bizarre stunt

"It's incredible to watch the sun rise overlooking the city that's meant so much to me", he told Today. "Ever since I was a kid, New York stood for the place that you went to make your dreams come true." Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter
