A 20-year-old man who “wanted a better view of the city’’ to shoot some pictures was busted after climbing 500 feet to the top of a Brooklyn Bridge tower, cops said yesterday.

Jacob Bragen’s stupid stunt at 10 p.m. Sunday drew swarms of officers in radio cars and helicopters. They arrested Bragen when he slid down a cable to the roadway. He was charged with reckless endangerment and criminal trespass.
