DATELINE Now, prosecutors want him to take a legal
fall. Corliss was arrested in April 2006 while trying to make a
parachute jump from the Manhattan landmark. But a judge dismissed a

Corliss posed was to himself. Prosecutors are asking a state
appeals court to reinstate the charges against Corliss, saying the
stunt could have injured people on the street below.
