More about Alain Robert

French Spiderman Alain Robert is one of the most famous men on earth. His legendary feats, climbing 200 of the world's tallest skyscrapers 'with his bare hands' have brought him celebrity status in every country.

If you Google.com search most Hollywood 'A' List movie stars you get between 15 and 40 million results (Sylvester Stallone 35 million, George Clooney 34 million, Liam Neeson 19 million, etc.). However, if you Google.com search Alain Robert you get 547 million (Over half a billion - July 2022). This makes him around 20 times more famous. 

Incredibly, despite his disabilities, this phenomenal perseverance had turned him into an even better climber than he was before his accident. He was able to return to free-solo climbing mountains, cliffs and gorges. Then in 1995 in the USA he climbed his first skyscraper.
