Daredevil couple accused in Empire State Building climb pack on PDA after first court appearance
They have a knack for public displays.
The newly-engaged couple, who police say scaled the Empire State Building last month, made their first court appearance on Monday in New York City and cameras were rolling as the couple appeared to make out as they exited the courthouse.
Netflix stars Ivan Kuznetsov, 32, and Angelina Nikolau, 33, are facing charges of burglary, reckless endangerment, and criminal mischief, among others after authorities say they were seen holding up a sign and wearing masks at the top of NYC's iconic landmark.

NYPD bodycam video showed officers making their way up the skyscraper and meeting with the masked suspects, who appeared to be unharnessed.
Two days before Monday's appearance, in an Instagram post, Nikolau said, "We believe that humanity has always been moved forward by those who refused to accept existing boundaries as final. Those who asked uncomfortable questions, took risks, and kept moving toward the impossible. The world without people like that would be much quieter. But we’re not sure it would be better Whatever happens in court, we will respect the process and accept the consequences of our choices."
