Aerial performance troupe rappels down SF's Transamerica Pyramid

SAN FRANCISCO (KGO) — SKY7 was over the Transamerica Pyramid in San Francisco Monday, where three people were spotted rappelling down the building.

The three people are reportedly part of Oakland-based BANDALOOP, an aerial vertical performance troupe.

The Joint Information Center reported that this was a planned performance related to APEC and they were monitoring the situation.

BANDALOOP says they were on the pyramid with permission from the city.

SFPD later tweeted: “Heads up! The individuals seen rappelling down the #TransamericaPyramid are part of a PERMITTED PERFORMANCE. Do not be alarmed, enjoy the show!”

The group posted on Facebook shortly before the aerial maneuvers began. “We realize that true safety is not a solid reality – it is situational, relative and dynamic – a living system – and in many spaces in the world people are NOT SAFE.

As a company that aims to reimagine what is possible and actualize a Culture of Safety, we stand in solidarity with movements towards liberation and the CALL TO A CEASEFIRE”
