NYPD terror chief John Miller wanted a first-hand look at the scene of the white flag caper high atop the Brooklyn Bridge — so he made the death-defying climb with roughly dozen other cops on Friday morning.

Miller urged investigators to see the crime scene themselves, in order “to further document” it, he told The Post.
The top cop came along because, “I wouldn’t ask my people to go anywhere I wouldn’t go myself,” he said.
He added, “We’re just going to take a look at the scene, we need to further document the actual crime scene… This is a chance to get the squad that’s actually doing the investigation a first hand look.”
Clad in blue helmets, officers, including ESU workers, attached themselves to vertical cables using hooks and carefully scaled the bridge’s larger horizontal main cable.
On Tuesday, a group of intruders slipped past NYPD anti-terror patrols and replaced the bridge’s American flags with white banners at a stunning height of roughly 270 feet.
