Dubai Skyscraper scaled by “French Spiderman”

French man Alain Robert, 52, is being dubbed as “French Spiderman.” The man scaled a 1,007 foot building in dubai in just an hour and ten minutes. Amazingly the man used no harness and only used chalk and sticky tape on his fingers. The building was the largest twisted tower in Dubai.

Surprisingly this was not his first daredevil of a climb. In 2011 Alain Robert scaled the worlds tallest tower, also in Dubai, under the same circumstances. The building stands 2,717 feet tall and he scaled it in just six hours.
