From the early age of four he has been scaling towering structures around the world using only his bare hands and no safety equipment, which has led many commentators to speculate that his balls are made of a very solid metallic alloy. To date, he has climbed to the summit of approximately 60,000 buildings in various countries, only to be arrested by the local police at the top on account of it being illegal in most jurisdictions to peer through windows without first gaining written permission from the building manager. He was once sentenced to 30 years imprisonment in Japan, but escaped after only the first day when he climbed the wall of his cell. When the confused jailor couldn't see him in his cell and opened the door to search the room, Alain silently dropped down from the ceiling beh

abstract
  • From the early age of four he has been scaling towering structures around the world using only his bare hands and no safety equipment, which has led many commentators to speculate that his balls are made of a very solid metallic alloy. To date, he has climbed to the summit of approximately 60,000 buildings in various countries, only to be arrested by the local police at the top on account of it being illegal in most jurisdictions to peer through windows without first gaining written permission from the building manager. He was once sentenced to 30 years imprisonment in Japan, but escaped after only the first day when he climbed the wall of his cell. When the confused jailor couldn't see him in his cell and opened the door to search the room, Alain silently dropped down from the ceiling behind him and made his escape. To this day he is still a wanted man in Japan and avoids any travel to that country.
