On our eight weeks trip to Malaysia last year, one of the buildings we fell in love with are the Petronas Twin Towers. We admired them - but that's where we stopped.
Not so Alain Robert, who calls himself the French spiderman: he just climbed the Towers. Yesterday, he climbed to the top of one Tower. The Towers are 452m high. Robert did it without using a rope, just with his bare hands. He has climbed over 70 skyscrapers before and this was his third attempt to conquer the Petronas Towers. Here you can find the BBC article and a nice video.

Reminds me of Philippe Petit.. have you seen 'Man on wire'? If not, you should. Fascinating.

Ihr müsst aufpassen, dass ihr bei dem Tempo, in dem ihr jetzt wieder Posts veröffentlicht, eure Statistik nicht durcheinander bringt und mehr als 16 pro Jahr verfasst! (wie in den vergangenen) Das Jahr ist noch lang ;-)
The Man on wire is even more scary!!
Ich würde sagen, dass wir das mit der Statistik nicht so genau nehmen. Wir nehmen's, wie's kommt. ;-)
