The Story of a Real-life Spiderman Overcoming vertigo – and countless injuries which have left him officially 60% disabled – Alain Robert has scaled nearly 100 skyscrapers worldwide: from the Petronas Towers in Malaysia to Taipei 101, from Chicago’s Sears Tower to Canary Wharf in London. Reward and punishment have been received in equal measure – the flamboyant Frenchman has gained international fame and raised thousands of dollars for charity, but has also been arrested, beaten and prosecuted. Many people ask whether it is madness to undertake such perilous ascents without the use of safety equipment. But in Alain’s view, it is madness not to follow your dreams! This is the inspiring story of a man who has conquered fear and exceeded his own limits: the world’s greatest urban climber.
