Check out these exclusive pictures of free climbing activist Alain Robert aka the French Spiderman, scaling the New York Times Building around 12:15pm today without any gear. They were taken from the 47th floor offices of investment firm ClearBridge Advisors. Robert hopes the publicity stunt will bring awareness to global warming or something, comparing it to the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center, “Around the 10th floor he put up a banner saying, “Global warming kills more people than 9/11 every week.” Robert was eventually apprehended by police when he reached the top of the 52-story building. More flicks of the daredevil in action after the jump.
