Alain Robert, renamed the 'French Spider-Man' today climbed with his bare hands a skyscraper in La Défense, the business district on the outskirts of Paris, to express his opposition to the health pass wanted by President Emmanuel Macron to fight the coronavirus.
After just over an hour of climbing, without equipment, other than simple 'straps' around his fingers, the French 'spider man', now on the verge of sixty, was stopped and placed in custody for "endangering the life of others".
