Meet the French Spiderman

We all are used to people doing cosplay playing pretend of most of their cartoon or superhero personas. This French guy takes it to different heights, pun intended. 

Meet Alain Robert, rock and urban climber extraordinaire, from Digoin, Saône-et-Loire, Bourgogne, France.

He is famous for doing free solo climbing and scaling skyscrapers using no safety nets and climbing equipment -- but only with a small bag of chalk and a pair of climbing shoes. How's that for awesome eh?

See him in action below on scaling -- Burj Khalifa. I think we have a theme going on here. Enjoy!
