Photo: See Real-life ‘Spiderman,’ Climbs 1,000ft Tall Building Using His Bare Hands

This is the moment a daredevil climber scaled a 1,000ft building with his bare hands over a busy city.

Alain Robert, known as the French Spiderman, clung on to
Shimao Horizon Center Building for dear life in Shaoxing
city, East China's Zhejiang province.

Mr Robert wore a light pink shirt and climbing trousers
with a small harness as he slowly pulled his way right
around the building, which measures 288 metres, on
Saturday.

Below, cars looked like tiny dots and views stretched right
out to the horizon – but the happy chap seemed less than
bothered by his precarious position.

The 51-year-old has been climbing tall buildings since the
age of seven, and has scaled the Empire State Building,
Chicago's Willis Tower and the Petronas Towers in Kuala
Lumpur.

And not one to rest for long, he embarked on Doha's La
Cigale Hotel in 2008 and Sydney's 57-storey Lumiere
skyscraper in 2010.

He also scaled the 985ft Torch tower in Qatar's capital
Doha in 75 minutes without a rope or harness last year, to
set a fastest time.
