Mustang Wanted


Pavlo Gennadiyovich Ushivets (Ukrainian: Павло Геннадійович Ушивець, Russian: Павел Геннадьевич Ушивец, born 21 January 1987), better known as Mustang Wanted, is a Ukrainian urban climber and Internet celebrity. He is known for the high-altitude stunts he performs around the world with little or no safety equipment.

On 19–20 August 2014, he climbed Kotelnicheskaya Embankment Building, one of the Seven Sisters (a group of skyscrapers in Moscow designed in the Stalinist style), painted the spire in blue and raised the Ukrainian flag on the top of the building. He dedicated the performance to Independence Day of Ukraine (celebrated on 24 August). He suggested online that he was willing to be arrested by Russian police in exchange for the release of Ukrainian pilot Nadya Savchenko, who was captured by pro-Russian forces in eastern Ukraine and abducted to Russia. He received the 2014 Troublemaker Award for this stunt.

Mustang Wanted, who identifies himself as Heorhiy (or Grigory), is a resident of Kyiv. Among other buildings, he has climbed Vienna's Votivkirche,Princess Tower in Dubai and Most SNP in Bratislava.
