French 'Spider Man' climber Alain Robert has been at it again, this time being arrested in London after climbing a 27-storey building in Victoria apparently to draw attention to climate change.

Robert, who has a long history of impressive buildering feats, scaled Portland House in Victoria Street without the use of ropes or protection and was subsequently arrested by police on suspicion of criminal damage and wasting police time. Sounds suspiciously like a self-fulfilling charge eh?

And here he is in action... Nice architectural features and great applause :-)
