They came down from a dizzying height.
The dingbat daredevils who got engaged atop the Empire State Building’s antenna were sprung Thursday after getting hit with a slew of charges for the cringe Instagram stunt.
A black catsuit-clad Angela Nikolau, 33, and her beau Ivan Kuznetsov, 32, beamed as clasped hands as they walked free from their arraignment in Manhattan Criminal Court – nearly a day after he dropped on one knee more than 1,000 feet in the air.
“It’s the most powerful power: love,” Kuznetsov intoned in a thick Russian accent, shortly before playing serious tonsil hockey with Nikolau on the Chambers Street subway station’s steps.
“We believe in love.”
Nikolau didn’t wear her engagement ring that she flaunted on Instagram moments before NYPD cops also scaled the spire and arrested the perpetually posting pair Wednesday. The ring remained in a police station, Kuznetsov said as they navigated a swarm of reporters.
The exhibitionist lovebirds’ shameless smooching contrasted with their clear nervousness in court, where they were arraigned on charges that could send them to prison for up to seven years, if convicted.
The charges are also not eligible for bail under New York law, meaning the pair couldn’t be held behind bars ahead of their next court date Aug. 24.
But prosecutors did successfully request the thrillseekers be put on supervised release owing to the dangerousness of their foolish feat.
