The unidentified climber was intercepted by Secret Service agents after getting stuck on the fence's spikes.

A man dressed entirely in black attempted to climb the White House security fence on Monday, February 3, 2025.
The climber was recorded by a tourist, who described the event as 'surreal' and noted the presence of rooftop snipers and security dogs.
The man reached the top of the fence but got stuck on the spikes, prompting him to climb back down, where he was surrounded by Secret Service agents.
