Woman Rescued by Firefighters After She Climbed a CRANE in Downtown Toronto

This is certainly one way to start off a Wednesday.

#Crane was trending country wide on Twitter after a young woman climbed a crane on Church street in Toronto, and had to be helped down.

No word on why she did it, but after being stuck for 4 hours.. she must have been relieved.

It has been confirmed by Toronto police that the woman will indeed be charged with mischief.

All jokes aside, we’re happy she’s safe and big love to the firefighters who helped her down!
