South China Sea: French ‘Spider-Man’ scales Manila skyscraper to support Philippines’ claims in waters disputed by China
He climbed the 47-storey GT Tower without a harness, and was promptly arrested after successfully descending from the skyscraper.
Robert climbed the same skyscraper in 2019. He was arrested and fined 1,000 pesos (US$18) for his stunt.
Manila financial district employee Andy Vergarra, who watched Robert’s ascent, said his climb was “very frightening”.
“Just watching him up there already makes me sweat. It’s making me squeamish,” Vergarra said.
