'French Spiderman' Alain Roberts climbs London's Heron Tower

Skyscraper climber 'the French Spiderman' has struck again - this time at one of London's tallest buildings. Alain Robert, whose feats have included climbing Dubai's 2,717ft (828m) Burj Khalifa, is tackling the Heron Tower in the City of London. The 56-year-old daredevil, who is known for scaling skyscrapers with his bare hands, said before his climb: 'I fully feel alive when my life is at stake. It may sound a bit scary and crazy but this is the way it is.' The illegal ascent of the 662ft (202m) tower - now known as the Salesforce Tower - is with no safety gear, without a rope and with bare hands. Uniformed City of London Police officers arrived at 1.37pm, set up a taped cordon stopping traffic around the building and ushered the growing crowd to move back and keep out of the road.
