Office workers were stunned as self-declared "badass" Alain Robert suddenly appeared outside their windows as he scaled the GT International Tower in Makati, Philippines.
Extraordinary pictures and video on social media show the 56-year-old stuntman - clad in a dark shirt and yellow trousers with a camera strapped to his head - climbing the 47-storey tower without any safety equipment.
The urban climber and Guinness World Record holder later told reporters following his arrest: "There is the good crazy and the bad crazy... but what people are saying about me is I'm a badass."
Robert, who suffers from vertigo, risked death has he pulled himself up from one floor to the next, high above a crowd watching from the street below.
Makati police said Robert spent about an hour on the side of the tower before descending, and was arrested at about 12pm local time on Tuesday.
