Inside Edition for Wednesday July 01, 2026

As if New York City isn't crazy enough with July 4th and Taylor Swift's big wedding just days away, today two daredevils decided to climb all the way to the very top of the Empire State Building — completely untethered! As Steven Fabian reports, they apparently thought being more than 1,400 feet above the ground was the perfect place for a proposal. And we're learning that Taylor and Travis are planning a black-tie, formal affair. As for Taylor's dress, Ann Mercogliano reports there are new clues as to which designer she's chosen. Next, don't go in the water! That was reportedly the warning given to the woman who went swimming in a Florida river and was killed by an alligator that went on the attack. And we're learning just how serious the danger was, as videos surfacing today show the area is infested with hungry gators. Finally, Cops patrolling the waters off the coast of Florida got quite the shock when they saw an eight-year-old boy driving a jet ski all alone.
