Actually "the proper channels" is what created the space program and most civilisation.

People who build spacecraft, aircraft, buildings and bridges and most of other gear put a lot of effort into managing risk. Yes, as a society we take risk but the risk is mitigated to a reasonably acceptable level.

That is the same reason workers are required to wear fall protection above a certain high. The reason they have to be trained before they go up there.

There is nothing special about these photos. For every one of these building there are probably a dozen or more people who have legal access from the owner to be up there, access to the correct PPE and training.

The fact someone is breaking the law and risking their lives and the lives of others to take a photo or video is obscene. What is the point, how does this help society in any way.
