So a guy tries to jump off the Empire State Building with a parachute. The security guards, no doubt fearing for their jobs and perhaps his life, stop him. His response? Complain that his right to jump was violated. (It's the little-known 35th Amendment.) This was apparently such a stupid assertion that the building owners sued him for millions just out of sheer irritation:

If he's around to talk about the 1000 jumps, calling them "successful" is rather obvious.

That's just perfect. I have a right to jump off your roof and land in traffic. You kept me from jumping! I have emotional distress! The suit sounds like it was designed to establish some parameters: no, you cannot film your reality shows on our observation deck. On the other hand, you like the idea that there are still "daredevils" in the world. Evel Knievel probably couldn't get clearance to jump the Grand Canyon these days, because of pollution requirements. Those bikes just belch out carbon. Now, if you want to try it in a Prius, we can talk.
