Even after Chinese authorities turned down two of requests, French 'Spiderman' Alain Robert still decided to climb China's (world's fourth) tallest Shanghai Jin Mao Tower.
On Thursday clad in a Spiderman costume, the 44-year-old made a barehanded ascent and descent of the 88-storey iron-and-glass structure, achieving the feat in 90 minutes.
But his feet had barely touched the ground, Chinese police immediately arrested him.
Now what is waiting for him is a custody of 15 days in a Chinese jail.
Robert has scaled the most tallest buildings in the world including Taipei 101, Empire State Building, Paris's Eiffel Tower.
