Duane Martinez and his friend on the left and one other individual climbed the Golden Gate Bridge and hung a banner in protest of the Olympics in China and the treatment of Tibetan people. He was also part of the team that hung a banner off the Great Wall of China.

Duane stated that once they were out of reach of the bridge guards, who were on them in less than a minute, they knew they would be able to scale the bridge and unfurl their banner across the bridge. They ended up with 3 charges against them and spent a night in jail. They are hoping the last three charges will be dropped.
