Not really much to it. Article in its entirety:

> Customers on line for their morning fix of caffeine at a Dunkin’ coffee shop in Jersey City got the scare of their lives Monday when a woman walked in and started waving a sword around, authorities said.

> The incident occurred at 40 Journal Square at 10:30 a.m., Jersey City spokeswoman Kimberly Wallace-Scalcione said.

> The 26-year-old, who was described as possibly being emotionally disturbed, terrorized customers and staff, but fortunately no one was injured, Wallace-Scalcione said.

Guess you never went to engineering school. I didn't either but I've been around reality a while. These buildings were not designed to carry a massive side load like those cables simply attached to their middles. Cables are always terminated at the ground on an angle so the tower load is mostly vertical, not sideways. And it would need to be far higher than the 25th floor, it needs 230 ft clearance in the middle, and the cables sag.

Not to mention these are private properties that might not take kindly to your brilliant idea.

It'll be like Japan.

Two swordsmen unexpectedly meet each other at Dunkin donuts. They decide to squash their differences by challenging each other to a sword duel. Next thing, they're now standing in the middle of the road, quietly glaring at each other, waiting for the perfect opportunity for one of them to strike with their sword. Then bang, one of them fall while the other suddenly appears behind the other swordsman, sheathing his sword and then he continues walking.
