Alain Robert Scales Brazil Tower

February 28, 2008 – 9:11 am

Alain Robert, affectionately nicknamed Spiderman has done it again. Alain scaled a 42-floor building with his bare hands in Sao Paulo, Brazil while nearly 2,000 onlookers watched.

He used no safety equipment to crawl down (and reclimb) the 495-foot Edificio Italia, one of the tallest buildings in the city.

Alain Robert wasn’t granted permission to climb the building and was detained by police after the stunt.

Mr. Robert is 45 years old and has climbed 70 buildings including the Eiffel Tower, the Sears Tower and the Empire State Building.

Just when you thought there were no Superheroes left, Alain Robert proves otherwise.
