Spiderman Summits Petronas Towers

Though the original in this urban exploration genre is Philippe Petit, another Frenchman, Alain Robert, aka Spiderman, continues to defy and conquer the world's tallest buildings.  Petit wirewalked, Robert climbs.  Yesterday, Robert summited the Petronas Towers in Kuala Lumpur after two previous attempts . . . and arrests.



P.S.  The documentary on Petit, Man on Wire, c'est magnifique.

Man on Wire - stunning, an extraordinary example in what you can do, self belief, focus and endurance.
