Alain Robert Instagram - As I was climbing  the gt tower in Makati Philippines I got a real issue  when I bumped my head and nearly lost my balance and for a split of second I have felt a very strong adrenaline discharge  in my whole body . But this kind of situation  has been rather common  for me over the last 50 years climbing freesolo . More like before it wasn't documented as only the head camera  can capture  it and before it didn't  exist . Even internet  didn't  exist when I did the most amazing  part of my climbing  career  and legacy which is freesoloing  the 1st 5.13d in the climbing history.

Alain Robert Instagram - As I was climbing  freesolo  for my 5th times Montparnasse in Paris but this time at 60 years old all of the sudden  the tip of my left foot has slipped.  My mistake  as I was using some brand new climbing  shoes instead  of some worn ones  with a much better feeling . We could call it a mistake  from a beginner.  But for sure in those moment our will to stay alive and our survival instinct  is taking over all of the functions of our human body .
Feel free to DM me on that matter.

Alain Robert Instagram - In March 2024 as I was climbing  the Gt tower in Makati Philippines that led me to a dead end 2m bellow the summit  and that left me as the only possible  option  to down  climb the entire building.  A 438m  round trip that took me 1h30 .

Alain Robert Instagram - When you are climbing  freesolo  being 100% focused on your target is mandatory as  you are mastering  fear and  there is no interference . You are the present  and you are fully living it . it's an amazing feeling that I have experienced  for already  50 years . Some people  are telling me that im too old and I should  step down  but climbing  freesolo  is not for me a hobby but a life path which I have dedicated  most of my life as a professional  climber making a living out of sponsors  but mostly out of love for what I have been doing  and still doing at the age of nearly 62 .

Alain Robert Instagram - Although  it was quite frustrating  reaching a dead end at the nearly  top of the Gt international tower in Makati Philippines I had to down climb freedolo 218m  out of the 220m tall building.  Two little meters were  missing as  flat and completely  impossible . However  and as a matter of life and death  I have kept my calm and my concentration  to make it safely snd successfully.

Alain Robert Instagram - I like this video  but somehow  the comment from the hosts  are showing  that our societies  and people  are pretty much heading in the same direction which is to follow the herd or the biggest number of people  maybe because  is it comforting and as soon as you are doing things differently  you are then questioning  people and you are outcasting . Most people  are only having a very short sight  vision and mainly  at the 1st degree but they are not seeing the bigger picture  and the biggest part of my messages behind  my eccentricities and my anti-conformism.  Every single day I'm inspiring  few hundreds of people who are writing  me and it is very comforting about the direction  i took  and not because  they will ever climb one day but because  I'm delivering this strong message of inspiration as my values in terms of resilience , overcoming  fears or obstacles  are very good values and universal that are applying  in thousands  of fields  all along our life reason why I'm also featured  in the English school books all over the world . Hope you'll be commenting my post and even better you'll be messaging me on DM.

Alain Robert Instagram - Climbing  freesolo and barefoot  in Verdon  at 60 years old using my own  fashion way but also a little bit playful.  Some would  say badass and eccentric . Most importantly  I assume .

Alain Robert Instagram - climbing  the 220m gt international tower in Makati has been  rather a difficult  experience  as I have discovered  along the way that those aluminum  slats were barely  holding  my weight which on the top of it and as the last two meters were not possible  once at the nearly top or 218m  above the ground I have had no other  option  that to down  climb the entire  building  and at the same time cumulating  336m .

Alain Robert Instagram - Although  im aging im still Climbing freesolo as it is my way of living , my life path or a lifetime philosophy.  Some people  may think that is risky but living is dangerous  as one way or another  you won't make it alive . I have always  considered  that for dying you must first be living . Curious  to get your approach  on that matter . Feel  free to DM me.

Alain Robert Instagram - Climbing  freesolo  the Gt tower in Makati.  Not really long ago as it was in March  and at the age of 61 . Although  I have encountered  difficulties  due to the lousyness  of the structure  I never lost faith in my ability to make it . I have always  been  a resilient  person and it is a very intresting  characteristic  that I have developed  Although  as a young boy I was afraid  of everything , terrified  by heights , the idea of falling and the refusal  of dying . What saved me ? Only  a dream . I wanted to become  courageous .

Alain Robert Instagram - In 2019 I had climbed  the Gt tower in Makati Philippines until the dead end near the top and I had to down  climb  the entire  building  but with a big difference  with March 2024 as now the main Crack that is running the building  from bottom  to top and that is solid  as part of the structure has now been obstructed  due to some leakage .

Alain Robert Instagram - Reaching  the top of the Burj khalifa 828m that is still the tallest building in the world at 61 years old after a 9hours ascent . It was on the 20th of November 2023 and I have climbed  it already on the 28th of March 2011 in front of an enormous  crowd and on that very special  occasion  the Sheikh Mohammad al Maktoum came to see me climbing  with his son whom will be the future ruler of Dubai.  Definitely  an amazing  building  and ascent .

Alain Robert Instagram - when you are climbing freesolo one of the main point  is about  mastering  fear . So naturally  I came to the conclusion  that it could also applies  to my training . it is simply  common sense  wether people  may like it or not there is on the contrary  a lot of wisdom .

Alain Robert Instagram - Climbing  the Gt tower in Makati Philippines has been  for me a very  intresting  experience  as im aging and im my way to 62 years old . The fact that the lat two meters  are impossible  left me no other choices  than to down climb  the entire  building  that is rather dangerous  as the aluminum  slats  are barely holding  50kg and they are only stapled  on the surface  of the building  which made the ascent  challenging as never really sure if I was not going to descent  the entire building  holding  one of those slats . At least I did care a lot not solicitating  it too much and everything  went fine exept when I bumped my head and lost partly my balance  with a hard time to hold the structure.

Alain Robert Instagram - for the second  time in my life I have climbed  the 828m Burj khalifa in Dubai  that is remaining the tallest building in the world and I did it again I November 2023 at the age of 61 years  old although  i have already  climbed it in 2011.  in November  2023 I was accompanied  with my friend @alexis.landot who is the leader among the  urban climbing  new generation .

Alain Robert Instagram - Climbing  freesolo  the 166m Silver tower  in Frankfurt  wearing  my snakes outfit  and cowboy boots  was a little  bit provocative  although  through my own eyes it didn't  feel risky as I was rather within my comfort zone.  All is a matter of perception which most of the people  doesn't  really accept it as they don't understand  and they will put themselves  under such situation  and they will be very judgmental as based on there own  fears and confort  zone.

Alain Robert Instagram - In March of this year I did climb the Gt international tower in Makati Philippines discovering  2meters below the summit  that it was impossible . A dead end actually  and I have had to climb down 218m  or nearly the entire  building . A climb  that was nerclve wracking as depending  on those alum  slats  that were barely holding  my weight . Under such circumstances  mastering fear and having a strong mindset  is mandatory .

Alain Robert Instagram - a bit surprised  by that little slip all of the sudden  as the roof was still humid and slippery  from an an early drizzle and im smiling I got lucky as I get stopped  by the gutter.

Alain Robert Instagram - climbing freesolo the 190m Totalenergies building  as when I was approaching  to the top the cops started chit-chating with me but not in an aggressive way as they are knowing  me for 30 years and only in la defense  I have been  arrested more than 60 times .

Alain Robert Instagram - Framatome  is without  a doubt  the craziest and the hardest building  I have ever climbed freesolo in my life knowing  that there is absolutely  no possible  rest . it is a 180m vertical Crack  running the entire surface  of the building from bottom to top but most viciously on different  occasions  the Crack is narrowing  on the inside making  it nearly impossible  to jam the tip of your feet as too narrow . However  I did it successfully  in August 1998 . if I was having to talk about  a grade of difficulty  as we are using on Rock I would  be saying 5.13b or 8a but on my specific scale  of difficulties for building  from 1 to 10 it would be a 10 .  It is a kind of building  that if you are making it alive it will be only a once in a life time story .

Alain Robert Instagram - When my son @julien_robert_spiderson who is by the way an amazing  athlete  has insisted to climb with me an easy building although  he has never climbed before on any surfaces . Then I have picked one of the easiest building I was knowing . The Torre Glories in Barcelona  and we have climbed  it both freesolo.  An amazing  experience we have shared together although  I wasn't really keen to do it at the beginning  but since he had decided to go alone at leat I came with him and I had been able to give him a lot of tips all along  the ascent .

Alain Robert Instagram - In March  of this year Climbing  the Gt tower in Makati Philippines was rather a scarry  experience  due to the lousyness  of the structure . Always  having my warning on a high alert as each of those aluminum  slats  could have gone potentially  down with myself on it and I had to really distribute my weight  as much as I could  as climbing  on some egg shells.  So having  to do it up and down has been rather a stressful  experience.

Alain Robert Instagram - Quite destroyed after climbing  up & down  the 220m Gt international tower in Makati Philippines in March 2024 . if you have watched the entire video  you can see it at the end and my 40h custody  in a big dirtyness  and in the middle of thousand of cockroaches posed me a bit of issues .

Alain Robert Instagram - And if aging  wasn't  such a fatality ?  At least and as far as im concerned  I have decided  to continue to climb freesolo  as it is what I have  been doing my whole life long and since I'm still mentally and physically fit I'm still doing what I love .A journey  started 50 years ago . First by freesoloing  on rocks  snd then shifting  on to buildings  but also being back on rocks . However  im perfectly  aware  that my best performances  were more than 30 years ago but all I did successfully  in my life wether is is on rocks or on buildings  I did it with a broken  body and 66% disability  since 1982 . Somehow  a lesson of resilience  and an invitation  to overcome  obstacles .

Alain Robert Instagram - At the top of the 828m Burj khalifa in Dubai  that is remaining  the tallest  building  in the world  and I have climbed  back at the age of 61  in November 2023 with my friend @alexis.landot . A building  that I had already  climbed  in 2011 . An amazing  experience  to stand up up there after 9 long hours climb . Quite a day in a life time.

Alain Robert Instagram - After reaching  a dead end 2m  bellow the summit of the Gt tower in Makati I had no other options  than to climb down  the entire building . Most interestingly  is my age as im close to get 62 years old and it was 2 months ago .

Alain Robert Instagram - In Philippines Makati  climbing  freesolo the Gt tower in the middle  of the buisness district.  An ascent that I had to do up & down  due to the impossibility  to climb the last two meters . At least an intresting  effort at the age of 61 as combining both made me climb 438m dancing on some egg shells .

Alain Robert Instagram - Stuck at the nearly  top of the Gt tower in Makati I have had no other options  than down climbing  the entire  building  before  surrendering  to the cops whom kept me for 40hours in custody  in a very dirty cell with hundreds of cockroaches crawling  on the floor and on the wall . Quite an experience . I felt all the more concerned  by the dirtyness  as I was injured on nearly all of my fingers and palms but also my feet . However  being still capable  to do such an ascent  at the age of nearly  62 is rather a great accomplishment  for as far as im concerned.

Alain Robert Instagram - Without  a single doubt the Torch tower in Doha  is the most dangerous  building  j have ever climbed freesolo in my career on the top of being also difficult  due to the overhang  on the last third of the tower . An official  event  organized  by th Emir of Qatar that was transmitted live on Al Jazeera but also followed  and filmed by the guinessworldofrecords whom gave me a certificate  after reaching  the top but also Discovery Channel , BBC and even Redbull  TV whom invited me few days later on there live TV show in Austria .  Feel free to DM me.

Alain Robert Instagram - Sometimes  in life you are about to fall and about to die but all of the sudden you are managing  to hang up even stronger to find some strength  within yourself  that you were even ignoring and simply because  you want to live . This is my story  as all along my life I fell many times I should  have died many times but for some reasons  that im ignoring  im still amongst  the human  beings . I started to climb  freesolo  50 years ago out of a dream . Becoming  courageous  as I couldn't  deal anymore with all of my fears from when I was even younger . I would  call it faith . Faith in myself , faith in to the invisible  but mostelikely  something  beyond  myself  that is much bigger . I invite you to think about it . Do not hesitate  to DM  me as I will always  take sometime to send you a reply .

Alain Robert Instagram - Not holding  the structure  anylonger  and relying  only on your balance with  more than  150m  above the ground  and without  any safety  seems surreal  as it is a matter of life and death but actually  it's not . I have been climbing  freesolo  for fifty  years on rocks and on buildings  and obviously I have developed  my mind but also the physical aspect  that is allowing  me to handle such situation as safely  as I can .  There again do not underestimate  your body and your physical and mental  abilities  whom are your best assets. 
#climbing #freesolo #mindset #resilience #challenge #adventure #masteringfear #climbinginspiration
Alain Robert Instagram - those are 6 of the hardest buildings  in the world  that I have climbed  freesolo  back in the days . 
1 Framatome in la dĆØfense 1998 maybe 8a
2 Sears tower in Chicago 1999 close to 8a 
3 Holiday Inn in Johannesburg 1998 could be 7c 
4 OUB in Singapore 2000 close to 7c
5 Blue Cross Philadelphia 1997 close to 7b with only one Crack as if having a bigger span you'll be able to use 2 and it may be only 6c . 
6 Bank of Slovakia in 1998 only 7ab  as it is a short building . 
Once again  those are only suggestions  as none of those buildings  has ever been repeated . 
#Climbing #freesolo #challenge #resilience #pushingthelimit #climbinginspiration
Alain Robert Instagram - From top to bottom . Climbing  back the Burj  khalifa  at the age of 61 years old was never in my agenda and I have had that privilege  to climb it back but this time with my young friend  and urban climber @alexis.landot . However  it is a very long ascent  that took us 9hours and we have benefited at the top an extraordinary  sunset with absolutely  no wind that did allow us to spend one hour up there enjoying  this amazing  sight of Dubai but moreover  the desert , the sun and the ocean .

Alain Robert Instagram - Alain Robert, famously known as the French Spider-Man, has carved a unique path in the world of free solo climbing. Born in France, Alain’s journey from a timid boy to an international climbing icon is a tale of overcoming fears and redefining human limits. Known for scaling some of the world’s tallest buildings without ropes, Alain’s legacy is not just in his urban conquests but also in his profound contributions to rock climbing.

Alain’s climbing career began not out of a love for heights, but from a desire to conquer his fears and build self-confidence. He was initially afraid of heights and lacked self-assurance. However, a childhood dream of becoming courageous and an inspiring movie about mountaineers rescuing plane crash survivors ignited his passion for climbing. This passion was fueled by a determination to prove his capabilities to himself and others.

Alain’s climbing achievements are remarkable. His greatest achievement is being the first person to free solo a 5.13D. Alain is also celebrated for his ability to scale buildings like they are repetitive rock faces, each move calculated and precise. Alain emphasizes that while buildings may seem easier to climb than natural rock formations due to their repetitive structure, the challenge lies in the fact that he climbs without any safety equipment. One mistake could be fatal.

Beyond his urban climbing feats, Alain’s true legacy lies in his rock climbing achievements. He has free soloed some of the most challenging rock faces, pushing the limits of what is possible without ropes. His climbs are not just physical accomplishments but also acts of courage and mental fortitude.

As Alain approaches 62, he continues to inspire with his climbs and his philosophy on life. He is planning more climbs and is set to release a new autobiography that will delve deeper into his life and achievements. Alain’s journey from a fearful child to the French Spider-Man is a powerful reminder of the heights we can reach when we dare to pursue our dreams with passion and courage.

Alain Robert Instagram - Climbing  the Luxor obelisk  in Paris  isn't only a one way ticket  as once at the top of the 31meters the only option  is to down  climb the entire  obelisk  including the 7m pedestal . It remains at today a very unique  experience  as the ascent  itself is intresting  and very difficult  3 meters below the top as the hieroglyphs are a lot smaller . Not need to tell you that the sight from up there is absolutely  amazing.

Alain Robert Instagram - Arrested more than 150 times , jailed on numerous  occasions , beaten  up by the cops , chased by the authorities,  baned , deported , blacklisted,  convicted .

Alain Robert Instagram - as I had a sip already  in a precarious  way as not holding  the building  any longer  to unscrew the lid of my bottle after drinking  and as I was going to put it back it dropped  on my belly but I managed  to get it back . it shows the power of our mindset and focusness  that is never to be underestimated and although  I have climbed freesolo Totalenergies  building  on several  occasions  nothing is never fully acquired . However  and eventhough  I'm aging with by now heading 62 I'm still training  on a regular  basis and I'm keeping my body fit .

Alain Robert Instagram - Climbing freesolo  such tall structure  at the age of 60 years old is representing  for a lot of people insanity or craziness  but for most of them it is on the contrary  very inspiring . Not because  those people  will start climbing some buildings  or cliffs freesolo  tomorrow  but because  there is a much broader message of freedom,  resilience , leadership,  overcoming obstacles,  mastering fear and plenty more .

#climbing #freesolo ##badass #challenge #mindset #climbinginspiration
Alain Robert Instagram - I'm posting  this little climbing  video that is summarizing  pretty well my journey  since I have started to climb freesolo  50 years ago . The fact that at nearly 62 years old im still at it is rather comforting for the majority  of people  as giving a different  perspective  and the meaning of aging in 2024 . I'm not trying  to push people  to climb freesolo  but more to invite people to understand  that aging isn't a fatality  and we can still do a lot of things .  Do not hesitate  to comment  or to DM me .

Alain Robert Instagram - when you are climbing  freesolo  mastering fear is mandatory.  Remaining  focused is what is allowing  me to overcome obstacles and challenges.

Alain Robert Instagram - it felt so amazing  to climb back some rocks freesolo  and in Verdon  after such long interruption  of 22 years whithout  touching  rocks but also realizing  how much I have missed it and at the same time realizing that it was the true essence of climbing but also my 1st love and the theater of some of my most difficult  ascents freesolo  when I was much younger and definitely  my legacy  that has been  completely  overshadowed  by the buildings  and the mainstream  medias.  At today  a lot of people  are not knowing  what I have accomplished  freesolo  and on rocks as it was before the internet  but as a matter of fact making  history  by climbing  freesolo  the 1st two 5.13d in the climbing history. 
#climbing #freesolo #rockclimbing #adventure #adrenaline #challenge #climbinginspiration
Alain Robert Instagram - At 60 years old I have decided to make my return on rocks  after an absence  of 22 years and climbing  directly freesolo  in Verdon  in some unknown  routes and once again playing  with my limits although  I have left rock climbing  with a Ferrari engine  that I was pushing  in the red but for my come back I was only equipped  with an Honda civic  but discovering  that my philosophy  was still the same as also pushing it in the red . 
Feel free to ask me some tips on DM.

Alain Robert Instagram - at 60 years old im still climbing  freesolo . it is surprising  a lot of people  that im still climbing  and all the more freesolo .  What most of the people  haven't  understood  is that for me climbing  was never a passion but a life path and a way of living with behind  it his own philosophy.

Alain Robert Instagram - Although  this building  is not really complicated it is somehow an intresting  one as it is a succession of roofs  from bottom to top but each time with the possibility  to have a good rest in between  one to the next .  Alto building 152m in la dĆØfense or Paris buisness district.

Alain Robert Instagram - In March of this year and at the age of 61  I have climbed  freesolo the Gt international tower in Makati Philippines.  In this little video  some difficult  moments  struggling  on those aluminum slats  as slim as some cigarette papers barely holding  my weight  which on the top of reaching a dead end 2m bellow the summit and forced to down  climb  the entire  building.  Quite a difficult  day that I have continued  in custody  for 40h in some very bad condition laid on some concrete  with my 16 other fellow  inmates amongst hundreds of cockroaches.

Alain Robert Instagram - Although climbing freesolo  tge skymelia in Barcelona is  not really a performance , aging is definitely  a countdown  and climbing  freesolo  those tall buildings  or cliffs is interogting  our societies as at the same time inspiring  a lot of people  but Also frightening  plenty  of them whom are playing by the book all along there lives as they are not use to it to question the establishments  as they can only feel at ease amongst the herds of our societies . they are the one condemning a potential  fall but they are ignoring  the fact that on the average  every single day 5k people  are dying in the world victim of a car accident  or a scooter . Accident  whom are nowdays very often linked to our smartphones  equipped from GPS that most of the drivers are manipulating whilst  driving . 
#climbing #freesolo #challenge #adventure #mindset #climbinginspiration
Alain Robert Instagram - I'm sure that you will  agree on my statement  as whilst  climbing  freesolo , mastering fear  is the number one priority  and although  this video  has been  taken in November 2023 I always  keep it on mind  on the too of being physically  prepared  as mandatory aswell . However  I can't make everyone  happy or asking people to understand  me as we are living  in a world  where everything  is too fast and people are consuming  social medias  like junk food and most of the time not even 1% aware abt all I have done and all of the sacrifices I went through . Majority  of people  will watch this video  and will judge me tottaly  ignoring  the giant work and dedication  behind it and for half century .
#Climbing #challenge #adventure #mindset #masterinfear #resilience #climbinginspiration
Alain Robert Instagram - Climbing up and down the entire  building  has badly destroyed  my fingers and my feet and I had been quite in pain during my 40hours custody in some very bad condition  due to the lack of space in an overly populated cell and the thousands  of cockroaches crawling on the floor snd on the wall . never saw that anywhere  before although  I had been arrested in more than 70 countries  and more than 150 times . 
#climbing #freesolo #challenge #adventure #mindset #masteringfear #climbinginspiration #escalada #resilience
Alain Robert Instagram - Mastering fear and dealing with obstacles is somehow  what's life is about from the moment  we born  until our last day . I decided in my life to apply it voluntarily by climbing  freesolo  those cliffs  and giant buildings and it did teach me a lot about  life as those are universal  values  that you can apply  in any kind of fields. 
#climbing #freesolo #resistance #challenge #mindset #climbinginspiration
Alain Robert Instagram - why I got stuck two meters below the top of the Gt tower in Makati and I had to down  climb the entire building  which  made in total 438m . Knowing  that it was in March 2024 and that im already  61 years old . However  im conceiving my life only climbing  freesolo  and although  I don't need it anymore on a daily basis like back in my best days I still do need to feel that thrill few times a year and I keep on training  my body on purpose and staying fit .

Alain Robert Instagram - Sunday  is a family  day with our usual  Sunday  brunch but it doesnt  mean that because  I have been on champagne  that I forget to follow my life path . 
climbing  is so much more than a sport  but rather a way of living  with his own life philosophy .

Alain Robert Instagram - Back in 1994 when I climbed the Calico building in New York in 101 Park Avenue. One of the craziest and greatest  adventure  in my life in terms of authority responses but also the climb itself  and the thrill of doing it . However  and Back in the days there was still a lot more freedom in the united states  that has deteriorated over the last thirty years.

Alain Robert Instagram - Climbing  for my 2nd time  at 61 years old the Burj khalifa 828m  that is still remaining the tallest building  in the world  has been for me an amazing  experience . Experience  that I have shared with my friend  climber @alexis.landot  who is leading  the new generation  of urban climbers and whom  I have inspired.

Alain Robert Instagram - As I was climbing  freesolo  the 220m Gt tower in Makati I bumped  my head on one of those aluminum slats and I lost my balance which nearly made me fall .

Alain Robert Instagram - Not sure if you are sharing  the same opinion  of those two guys commenting on my climbs freesolo  and barefoot  in Verdon  at the age of 60 and something . As far as im concerned  I would  think that it is rather inspiring . Please let me know your thought  on that matter and do not hesitate  to contact  me on DM.

Alain Robert Instagram - šŸ™ El kraken entre los Krakens @alainrobertofficial  En 1996 Alain Robert ascendió los 227m del mĆ­tico Golden Gate

āœļø "En 1996 subĆ­ al Puente Golden Gate en San Francisco. Una ascensión que resultó ser mucho mĆ”s agotadora de lo que habĆ­a esperado debido a la interminable longitud de los cables, pero tambiĆ©n por un viento muy fuerte que hacĆ­a que los cables se balancearan, y de hecho, en algĆŗn momento fue bastante aterrador. AdemĆ”s, los policĆ­as que me arrestaron me esposaron con las manos en la espalda, pero para llegar al ascensor dentro del pilar tuve que descender una escalera de 10 metros de cara a la altura, ya que era la Ćŗnica manera de agarrar las barras de la escalera, lo cual fue bastante peligroso e incómodo."

Alain Robert Instagram - inspiring people  became  over the years something  very intresting  for me and very meaningful  as it is no longer about climbing  freesolo  but it is about some universal values such as resilience,  overcoming  obstacles  or fear for mastering it and it applies in pretty much anything all along our lives .

Alain Robert Instagram - Already  two months  since I had been confronted  to this dangerous  situation  which I had to climb up and down  the Gt tower in Makati Philippines after being stuck two meters below the summit and with as a sole option down climbing  the entire building  which in total made me climb 438m.

Alain Robert Instagram - Climbing  the 828m Burj khalifa in Dubai at the age of 61 years  old . At today  it remains  the tallest building  in the world . A building  that I have climbed  on two occasions . My first time in 2011 shortly  after the opening of the building and the second time more recently  on the 20th of November  2023 with my friend  climber  @alexis.landot . Each time I have had to use a safety  rope under the requirements of the Dubai's authorities .

Alain Robert Instagram - The Blue Cross blue shield in Philadelphia that could be 5.12c  is amongst  the hardest  building  in the world  with the condition  of using only one Crack  which it was for me mandatory  as lacking of wingspan for using two . Otherwise  it's a complete  game changer  as with two Cracks it will be a lot easier . Mostelikely  3 to 4 levels lower in terms of difficulties and maybe only 5.11a or b . I climbed  it in 1997 when I was at my best period . This building  is really hard as the horizontal  lips are very thin but also the vertical  ones running the building  from bottom  to top and it is so tiny that it is impossible  to jam the tip of one foot . So instead  you can only progress with some very hazardous  frictions  on the windows  which is terribly  unsecure and nerves wracking  when you are naeraly climbing  200m like that freesolo .

Alain Robert Instagram - Back in 1991 when I did climb  freesolo  the 1st  two 5.13d in the climbing  history which is from far away my true legacy with 15 other routes in between 5.13b up to 5.13d . Unfortunately  overshadowed by buildings although  they are much easier but also mainly because  I was freesoloing  hard grades  on rocks  before  the internet . And I have pushed the game really far away by climbing  some routes extremely  random with a chance to make it alive that were sometimes only at 50/50 which it was requiring  from my side an enormous  faith in myself  but also the invisible . 
#climbing #freesolo #pushingthelimit #masterinfear #challenge #mindset #climbinginspiration
Alain Robert Instagram - Most people  dont understand  that climbing  the 1st 5.13d freesolo in the climbing history is  my true legacy.  Things I did in 1991 and before the internet but not only one route but fifteen in between 5.13bupto5.13d. But most interestingly is that I did all of that  after a terrible  accident  in 1982 that left  me permanently  disabled with 66% disability  that is mainly located  on my fingers , wrists and elbows but also my left internal ear that is making me suffering  from vertigo ever since . 
Feel free to comment  and even better on DM  as I can personalize my answers .

Alain Robert Instagram - Although  my through  legacy  is on rocks  when I did climb  the first two 5.13d  freesolo  in the climbing  history  back in 1991 a legacy that has been recognized  by the climbing  community  such as @alexhonnold or @alexander_huberbuam for only quoting some of the best specialists in the world  but I was very  surprised  two days  ago when I discovered  the A.I through ChapGTP as not even a word  abt the best part of my climbing history when i was freesoloing  on rocks  but instead an entire career focused and recognized  all over the world  in the mainstream  medias and the social medias that only recognizing  my worldwide fame and popularity  on Buildings.  Isn't it something  wrong with the A.I ????
I'm sharing it with you my friends  and im curious  to get your feedback.  Do not hesitate  to DM me .

Alain Robert Instagram - few months ago as I was climbing  in Philippines  the GT international tower freesolo  at the age of 61 years old . An ascent I did up and down  cumulating 436m climb before surrendering  to the authorities  at the bottom followed by a 40h custody in the worst condition  ever . 
#climbing #freesolo #climbinginspiration #challenge #adventure #resilience
Alain Robert Instagram - On  November  the 20th 2023 I climbed  back for my 2nd time  the tallest  building  in the world  named Burj khalifa with is  828m and at the age of 61 years old .  I have already  climbed  it in 2011 and this time i have had the pleasure  to share this ascent  with my young friend  and urban  climber @alexis.landot whom I have inspired  and who is now leading the field  of such a very small niche with a fist of other climbers .

Alain Robert Instagram - At 61 years old climbing  for my second time the tallest  building  in the world  in November 2023 . The use of the rope was mandatory  and I would say necessary.  I have already  climbed it in 2011 .

Alain Robert Instagram - Down climbing  freesolo  and all the more in Verdon  is rather impressive  since you are starting from the top . There is always  that very strange feeling when you are leaving  the horizontal of the plateau that is somehow  representing life and all of the sudden  you are retrieving yourself  into an hostile element  in the event  of a fall and it is rather a very complicated  mental exercise. 
#climbing #freesolo #challenge #adventure #mindset #climbinginspiration
Alain Robert Instagram - after my terrible  accident in September  1982 which I have exploded both wrists and damaged my fingers but also my elbows , my knee  cap , pelvis ankle and right heel  with on the top of it cracking my skull and falling in a coma a year later I have been expertised  and the social  security  did attribute  me a disability  of 66% as the surgeon in charge  of my case told me  that I would  never climb back . However  9 years later I was freesoloing  the 1st two 5.13d/ 8b in the climbing  history  back in 1991 with 15 other routes also freesolo in between 5.13b up to 5.13d. 
#Climbing #freesolo #legacy #resilience #mindset #challenge  #climbinginspiration
Alain Robert Instagram - For me the Verdon  is occupying a very special  place in my heart . I discovered  it in 1978 and it has been the theater of some of my  greatest exploits such as climbing  freesolo  Pol pot in 1996  or Crack  boum hue in 1991 , l.ange en decomposition in 1988 , no self control and many more in 1991 and many more routes .

Alain Robert Instagram - In March  2024 in Makati  Philippines I have  climbed  freesolo and  at the age of 61 the 220m building  up to a dead end located  2m bellow the summit.  As I was stuck up there I had no other solution  than to down  climb the entire  building  and at the same time cumulating  436m climb on a lousy structure  made of very slim aluminum slats that were barely holding my weight on the top of being  only stapled  on the surface  of the building . A nerve wracking experience. 
#climbing #freesolo #challenge #adventure #resilience #mindset #climbinginspiration
Alain Robert Instagram - A demonstration  of power , physical  strength  and physical  stamina although  sometimes  some people  are getting  perplex with the beginning  of the video  and what about you ? do not hesitate  to question me on DM. 
#climbing #strength #challenge #adventure #climbinginspiration
Alain Robert Instagram - Having fun is part of the package and my personality. Some will use the terms badass or eccentric and I kind of like it . For sure climbing  freesolo  snd barefoot  in Verdon  and combing my hairs on such small ledge is rather surprising  and I had to confess  that it is .
#climbing #badass #mindset #challenge #adventure #climbinginspiration
Alain Robert Instagram - Climbing  freesolo  an  easy building  in Frankfurt  nearly as easy as a ladder but in very provocative or badass way as wearing some snakes outfits and cowboy boots . It is a lot more than exentricity  as behind it there is a true message  of tiredness  and not following  the herds . 
#climbing #freesolo #mindset #badass #challenge #climbinginspiration
Alain Robert Instagram - Shortly before making my way down to the 218m of the Gt tower in Makati that I had just climbed up I took a little rest before starting  my long long descent.

Alain Robert Instagram - Courage  over Comfort.  I have always  thought  that this idea or concept was prevailing  in my life and that's the reason why I did chose to adopt it for my line of merchandise that you can find on my bio-link alainrobert.shop 
#climbing #freesolo #mindset #resilience #challenge #adventure #climbinginspiration #courageovercomfort
Alain Robert Instagram - There is a long time that through  my own way I give a middle  finger  to our society.  And there is nothing wrong about it as im rather marginal or eccentric.  I found up my refugee by climbing some insane cliffs freesolo  like at the end of the eighties  beginning  of the nineties as more recently although  for already  30 years climbing  freesolo  the tallest  and hardest buildings  in the world  and 90% of the time  out of 100 illegally. Some would  say badass but what about you ? feel free to DM me . 
#Climbing #freesolo #badass #resilience #challenge #climbinginspiration
Alain Robert Instagram - Climbing  freesolo and illegally  is also having a lot of charm as at the end of the day those people  who are working  inside those tall buildings  may not have as much fun and as much freedom  as im having on the outside , although  they wouldn't  like to be either on the other side  of there offices hanging  there bodys  on those lousy  slats but for few minutes  they are just amazed , laughing happily and realizing  that there another way of living , challenging the authorities  and challenging lives to feel even more alive . 
Feel free to DM me on that matter . 
#climbing #freesolo #challenge #mindset #badass #resilience #climbinginspiration
Alain Robert Instagram - Sometimes  things are happening  so fast that it is just out of an ultimate  reflex that I managed  to bend all of  my muscles and in a huge effort  avoiding  the worst . Climbing  freesolo  is amazing  but we need to keep in our minds that it's a one way ticket . For me mastering  fear is my story . As a young  boy afraid  of everything  and especially  heights,  falls and deaths there was a giant step in between  the person I was and the one I'm not.  what saved me is my dream . I wanted  to become  courageous . I had to decide wether a dream  was going to remain  just a dream or wether I could  potentially  realize it out of willingness  and willpower . So I have decided not to give up in my dream .
#Climbing #freesolo #adventure #challenge #masteringfear #climbinginspiration
Alain Robert Instagram - This video with @joerogan and @jimnorton is awesome . Looking forward  to meet Joe in Dallas . 
There is so much to talk after this long career climbing  freesolo  for 50 years , being arrested more than 150 tines on all continents . Climbing freesolo in 1991  the 1st 5.13d in the climbing history.  Climbing buildings  in Dubai and abu dhabi  several times in front of 100k people . Being treated harshly in jail and a week later eating with the king and the queen from Malaysia  back in 1997 . 
#climbing #freesolo #challenge #adventure #mindset #climbinginspiration #masteringfear
Alain Robert Instagram - Climbing  freesolo  the 190m Totalenergies building in la defense in Nov 2023 on a cold and very windy day as been a real struggle  towards the top to the point that I have lost my balance twice as I was negotiating  the last 20 meters but also badly affected  by the loss of one of the tape that was protecting  my fingers . 
#climbing #freesolo #challenge #adventure #reslience #masteringfear #climbinginspiration
Alain Robert Instagram - Not everyone  will understand me  and I can agree on that as it doesn't  really  make sense freesoloing  a 250 m cliff and  stopping  along the way for combing your hairs. There is no logics but I'm tempted  to ask you what is the logics and why you are believing  in it and based on what as I can assure  you that im not a suicidal person  and I have been climbing  freesolo for 50 over  years. 
#climbing #freesolo #mindset #challenge #resilient #adventure #escalada #climbinginspiration
Alain Robert Instagram - I definitely  love this video  as somehow  it is questioning  our society  as far away from any standards.  That standardization  that is is killing us a little more every single day passing . So climbing  illegally  and freesolo  using my cowboy boots and silver snakes outfit  allows me to send a signal as it is not only about climbing but is is about being different  and to stop following  the herds . I'm hoping  to get a lot of questions  on that matter and do not hesitate  to DM me . 
#climbing #freesolo #challenge #adventure #badass #mindset #climbinginspiration #resilience
Alain Robert Instagram - Framatome  is mostelikely  the hardest  and most dangerous  urban ascent I have done . it took me five years deciding wether I was going to do it or not and on the day snd after 30m I have had a bad feeling that it was not going to work  and I have decided to climb down but after less than one meter I have understand  that I couldn't.  I had to fully refocus on to a fighter and I have decided  that no matter I was going to make it alive and I have put all my strength into the battle . it was no longer a battle for a target but to live . I have encountered  halfway through  a major obstacle as the Crack was narrowing  to a point that I nearly couldn't  any longer jaming  the tip of my foot but I finally made it and after a battle that roughly last 45mn I was standing  at the top of what im still considering  as the hardest  building  I have ever climbed  freesolo . it was in 1998 . On my specific  scale of difficulties from 1 to 10 that  I have created  only for buildings  its a 10 as if using the grade as we are using on rocks  it would be be 8a . Once again it's only a suggestion . Recently  Adam Ondra  has climbed a building top rope  in Prague  and it would be 8c/8c  . There again it's in my opinion difficult  to use the same system  as on rocks as so different  as climbing a building  is only repetitive and it is more an effort that is claiming  a very good indurance  for the hard ones .
#climbing #freesolo #masteringfear #challenge #resilience #adventure #mindset #climbinginspiration
Alain Robert Instagram - climbing  doesn't  have to be necessarily  difficult . it is something  that became  so spontaneous over the last 50 years I have been  climbing  freesolo . Here @alilavillasuluwatu it is rather enjoyable  with such an enjoyable  snd relaxing  environment. 
#climbing #adventure #challenge #bali 
#uluwatu
Alain Robert Instagram - 50 years or half century climbing  freesolo  worth to be celebrated.  Wether it is on rocks  such as the 1st 5.13d freesolo in the climbing history or on buildings  with not less than 200 buildings  with amongst the the Sears tower or Framatome  but also  the burj khalifa at 61 years old . 
#Climbing #freesolo #challenge #mindset #reslience #adventure #climbinginspiration #escalada
Alain Robert Instagram - climbing  freesolo  has never been  a sport but more like a life path  and a life time philosophy.  Challenging  my life and sometimes  living outside my comfort  zone is what did allow me to see marvels in things that a lot of people are not seeing anylonger  or who would  find it completely  insignificant.

Alain Robert Instagram - Sometimes  when I'm looking at that already  fifty years old career  climbing  freesolo  I just can't believe  it . From that little boy afraid  of everything  and especially  heights,  fall and death but also that same little boy who had a dream  that was becoming  courageous . Somehow an amazing  life path climbing  freesolo  on rocks the hardest route in 1991 to 200 buildings at today freesolo.  I got to pinch myself  at nearly 62 to be sure that it wasn't  just a dream . 
#climbing #freesolo #resilience #challenge #adventure #mindset #climbinginspiration #escalade
Alain Robert Instagram - Climbing  freesolo  is clearly  potentially  dangerous and there is ways of dealing  with our stress's which one of them is the way we are breathing  and remaining  calm and positive  under difficult situations  as it is allowing  us to give the best from our body . 
#climbing #mindset #resilience #challenge #climbinginspiration
Alain Robert Instagram - Climbing on my way down  the 218m Gt international tower in Makati Philippines after I have reached a dead end two meters below the summit  and as a only option down climbing  the entire  building  that is rather unsafe due to those aluminum  slats  only stapled  on the surface  of the building  and that are barely  holding  my weight  as existing only on a decorative  purpose  but nevertheless  for tracking a body .
#climbing #freesolo #challenge #adventure #mindset #adrenaline #resilience #climbinginspiration
Alain Robert Instagram - Maybe a bit more precarious  than sipping a beer quietly  in a pub but as I was climbing  the 190m  building  I have had to repeat the same operation  5 times as I was really  dehydrated. 
#climbing #badass #challenge #adventure #resilience #climbinginspiration #escalada #adrenaline
Alain Robert Instagram - This very moment  when you are leaving the horizontal  thst is somehow  symbolizing  life and suddenly  you are confronted  with a 300m vertical is rather drastic . All the more at 60 years old and after a 22 years interruption  without  climbing  on rocks . 
#climbing #freesolo #Rockclimbing #challenge #adventure #adrenaline #masteringfear #climbinginspiration
Alain Robert Instagram - On new year's eve 1996 and with a temperature of āž–ļø 15 degrees Celsius,  I did undertake the ascent  of the Eiffel Tower freesolo and one hour later in 1997 I was starting my new year at the top of the The most iconic monument in Paris before being lead  to the police station. 
What a day my friend  and what an amazing  new year's eve . 
#climbing #eiffeltower #paris #newyearseve #challenge #climbinginspiration
Alain Robert Instagram - " facing our fears  is allowing us to move forward "  let me know what is your thinking on my statement . However  it doesn't  have to be as drastic  as climbing  freesolo  a building  or a cliff but more as an attitude  to adopt in general . 
#climbing #challenge #masteringfear #adventure #reslience #climbinginspiration
Alain Robert Instagram - When you are climbing  freesolo  mastering fear may be the recipe and the best advice  that i can give you as it allows you  be  entirely  focused  on your target with nothing interfering .

Alain Robert - 489.8K Likes - As I was climbing  the gt tower in Makati Philippines I got a real issue  when I bumped my head and nearly lost my balance and for a split of second I have felt a very strong adrenaline discharge  in my whole body . But this kind of situation  has been rather common  for me over the last 50 years climbing freesolo . More like before it wasn't documented as only the head camera  can capture  it and before it didn't  exist . Even internet  didn't  exist when I did the most amazing  part of my climbing  career  and legacy which is freesoloing  the 1st 5.13d in the climbing history.

Alain Robert - 61.4K Likes - When you are climbing  freesolo  being 100% focused on your target is mandatory as  you are mastering  fear and  there is no interference . You are the present  and you are fully living it . it's an amazing feeling that I have experienced  for already  50 years . Some people  are telling me that im too old and I should  step down  but climbing  freesolo  is not for me a hobby but a life path which I have dedicated  most of my life as a professional  climber making a living out of sponsors  but mostly out of love for what I have been doing  and still doing at the age of nearly 62 .

Alain Robert - 41K Likes - I like this video  but somehow  the comment from the hosts  are showing  that our societies  and people  are pretty much heading in the same direction which is to follow the herd or the biggest number of people  maybe because  is it comforting and as soon as you are doing things differently  you are then questioning  people and you are outcasting . Most people  are only having a very short sight  vision and mainly  at the 1st degree but they are not seeing the bigger picture  and the biggest part of my messages behind  my eccentricities and my anti-conformism.  Every single day I'm inspiring  few hundreds of people who are writing  me and it is very comforting about the direction  i took  and not because  they will ever climb one day but because  I'm delivering this strong message of inspiration as my values in terms of resilience , overcoming  fears or obstacles  are very good values and universal that are applying  in thousands  of fields  all along our life reason why I'm also featured  in the English school books all over the world . Hope you'll be commenting my post and even better you'll be messaging me on DM.

Caption : I like this video but somehow the comment from the hosts are showing that our societies and people are pretty much heading in the same direction which is to follow the herd or the biggest number of people maybe because is it comforting and as soon as you are doing things differently you are then questioning people and you are outcasting . Most people are only having a very short sight vision and mainly at the 1st degree but they are not seeing the bigger picture and the biggest part of my messages behind my eccentricities and my anti-conformism. Every single day I’m inspiring few hundreds of people who are writing me and it is very comforting about the direction i took and not because they will ever climb one day but because I’m delivering this strong message of inspiration as my values in terms of resilience , overcoming fears or obstacles are very good values and universal that are applying in thousands of fields all along our life reason why I’m also featured in the English school books all over the world . Hope you’ll be commenting my post and even better you’ll be messaging me on DM. #climbing #freesolo #badass #resilience #challenge #mindset #adventure #climbinginspiration

Alain Robert - 26.8K Likes - climbing  the 220m gt international tower in Makati has been  rather a difficult  experience  as I have discovered  along the way that those aluminum  slats were barely  holding  my weight which on the top of it and as the last two meters were not possible  once at the nearly top or 218m  above the ground I have had no other  option  that to down  climb the entire  building  and at the same time cumulating  336m .

Alain Robert - 26.4K Likes - Although  im aging im still Climbing freesolo as it is my way of living , my life path or a lifetime philosophy.  Some people  may think that is risky but living is dangerous  as one way or another  you won't make it alive . I have always  considered  that for dying you must first be living . Curious  to get your approach  on that matter . Feel  free to DM me.

Although  I have encountered  difficulties  due to the lousyness  of the structure  I never lost faith in my ability to make it . I have always  been  a resilient  person and it is a very intresting  characteristic  that I have developed  Although  as a young boy I was afraid  of everything , terrified  by heights , the idea of falling and the refusal  of dying . What saved me ? Only  a dream . I wanted to become  courageous .

Definitely  an amazing  building  and ascent .

Alain Robert - 14.2K Likes - Climbing  the Gt tower in Makati Philippines has been  for me a very  intresting  experience  as im aging and im my way to 62 years old . The fact that the lat two meters  are impossible  left me no other choices  than to down climb  the entire  building  that is rather dangerous  as the aluminum  slats  are barely holding  50kg and they are only stapled  on the surface  of the building  which made the ascent  challenging as never really sure if I was not going to descent  the entire building  holding  one of those slats . At least I did care a lot not solicitating  it too much and everything  went fine exept when I bumped my head and lost partly my balance  with a hard time to hold the structure.

All is a matter of perception which most of the people  doesn't  really accept it as they don't understand  and they will put themselves  under such situation  and they will be very judgmental as based on there own  fears and confort  zone.

A dead end actually  and I have had to climb down 218m  or nearly the entire  building . A climb  that was nerclve wracking as depending  on those alum  slats  that were barely holding  my weight . Under such circumstances  mastering fear and having a strong mindset  is mandatory .

Alain Robert - 11K Likes - Framatome  is without  a doubt  the craziest and the hardest building  I have ever climbed freesolo in my life knowing  that there is absolutely  no possible  rest . it is a 180m vertical Crack  running the entire surface  of the building from bottom to top but most viciously on different  occasions  the Crack is narrowing  on the inside making  it nearly impossible  to jam the tip of your feet as too narrow . However  I did it successfully  in August 1998 . if I was having to talk about  a grade of difficulty  as we are using on Rock I would  be saying 5.13b or 8a but on my specific scale  of difficulties for building  from 1 to 10 it would be a 10 .  It is a kind of building  that if you are making it alive it will be only a once in a life time story .

An amazing  experience we have shared together although  I wasn't really keen to do it at the beginning  but since he had decided to go alone at leat I came with him and I had been able to give him a lot of tips all along  the ascent .

Always  having my warning on a high alert as each of those aluminum  slats  could have gone potentially  down with myself on it and I had to really distribute my weight  as much as I could  as climbing  on some egg shells.  So having  to do it up and down has been rather a stressful  experience.

At least and as far as im concerned  I have decided  to continue to climb freesolo  as it is what I have  been doing my whole life long and since I'm still mentally and physically fit I'm still doing what I love .A journey  started 50 years ago . First by freesoloing  on rocks  snd then shifting  on to buildings  but also being back on rocks . However  im perfectly  aware  that my best performances  were more than 30 years ago but all I did successfully  in my life wether is is on rocks or on buildings  I did it with a broken  body and 66% disability  since 1982 . Somehow  a lesson of resilience  and an invitation  to overcome  obstacles .

This is my story  as all along my life I fell many times I should  have died many times but for some reasons  that im ignoring  im still amongst  the human  beings . I started to climb  freesolo  50 years ago out of a dream . Becoming  courageous  as I couldn't  deal anymore with all of my fears from when I was even younger . I would  call it faith . Faith in myself , faith in to the invisible  but mostelikely  something  beyond  myself  that is much bigger . I invite you to think about it . Do not hesitate  to DM  me as I will always  take sometime to send you a reply .

I have been climbing  freesolo  for fifty  years on rocks and on buildings  and obviously I have developed  my mind but also the physical aspect  that is allowing  me to handle such situation as safely  as I can .  There again do not underestimate  your body and your physical and mental  abilities  whom are your best assets.

Alain Robert - 7.8K Likes - those are 6 of the hardest buildings  in the world  that I have climbed  freesolo  back in the days . 
1 Framatome in la dĆØfense 1998 maybe 8a
2 Sears tower in Chicago 1999 close to 8a 
3 Holiday Inn in Johannesburg 1998 could be 7c 
4 OUB in Singapore 2000 close to 7c
5 Blue Cross Philadelphia 1997 close to 7b with only one Crack as if having a bigger span you'll be able to use 2 and it may be only 6c . 
6 Bank of Slovakia in 1998 only 7ab  as it is a short building . 
Once again  those are only suggestions  as none of those buildings  has ever been repeated .

Caption : those are 6 of the hardest buildings in the world that I have climbed freesolo back in the days . 1 Framatome in la dĆØfense 1998 maybe 8a 2 Sears tower in Chicago 1999 close to 8a 3 Holiday Inn in Johannesburg 1998 could be 7c 4 OUB in Singapore 2000 close to 7c 5 Blue Cross Philadelphia 1997 close to 7b with only one Crack as if having a bigger span you’ll be able to use 2 and it may be only 6c . 6 Bank of Slovakia in 1998 only 7ab as it is a short building . Once again those are only suggestions as none of those buildings has ever been repeated . #Climbing #freesolo #challenge #resilience #pushingthelimit #climbinginspiration

Alain Robert - 7.8K Likes - From top to bottom . Climbing  back the Burj  khalifa  at the age of 61 years old was never in my agenda and I have had that privilege  to climb it back but this time with my young friend  and urban climber @alexis.landot . However  it is a very long ascent  that took us 9hours and we have benefited at the top an extraordinary  sunset with absolutely  no wind that did allow us to spend one hour up there enjoying  this amazing  sight of Dubai but moreover  the desert , the sun and the ocean .

Alain Robert - 7.7K Likes - Alain Robert, famously known as the French Spider-Man, has carved a unique path in the world of free solo climbing. Born in France, Alain’s journey from a timid boy to an international climbing icon is a tale of overcoming fears and redefining human limits. Known for scaling some of the world’s tallest buildings without ropes, Alain’s legacy is not just in his urban conquests but also in his profound contributions to rock climbing.

Alain’s climbing career began not out of a love for heights, but from a desire to conquer his fears and build self-confidence. He was initially afraid of heights and lacked self-assurance. However, a childhood dream of becoming courageous and an inspiring movie about mountaineers rescuing plane crash survivors ignited his passion for climbing. This passion was fueled by a determination to prove his capabilities to himself and others.

Alain’s climbing achievements are remarkable. His greatest achievement is being the first person to free solo a 5.13D. Alain is also celebrated for his ability to scale buildings like they are repetitive rock faces, each move calculated and precise. Alain emphasizes that while buildings may seem easier to climb than natural rock formations due to their repetitive structure, the challenge lies in the fact that he climbs without any safety equipment. One mistake could be fatal.

Beyond his urban climbing feats, Alain’s true legacy lies in his rock climbing achievements. He has free soloed some of the most challenging rock faces, pushing the limits of what is possible without ropes. His climbs are not just physical accomplishments but also acts of courage and mental fortitude.

As Alain approaches 62, he continues to inspire with his climbs and his philosophy on life. He is planning more climbs and is set to release a new autobiography that will delve deeper into his life and achievements. Alain’s journey from a fearful child to the French Spider-Man is a powerful reminder of the heights we can reach when we dare to pursue our dreams with passion and courage.

Alain Robert - 7.6K Likes - Climbing  the Luxor obelisk  in Paris  isn't only a one way ticket  as once at the top of the 31meters the only option  is to down  climb the entire  obelisk  including the 7m pedestal . It remains at today a very unique  experience  as the ascent  itself is intresting  and very difficult  3 meters below the top as the hieroglyphs are a lot smaller . Not need to tell you that the sight from up there is absolutely  amazing.

Not because  those people  will start climbing some buildings  or cliffs freesolo  tomorrow  but because  there is a much broader message of freedom,  resilience , leadership,  overcoming obstacles,  mastering fear and plenty more .

Alain Robert - 6.4K Likes - I'm posting  this little climbing  video that is summarizing  pretty well my journey  since I have started to climb freesolo  50 years ago . The fact that at nearly 62 years old im still at it is rather comforting for the majority  of people  as giving a different  perspective  and the meaning of aging in 2024 . I'm not trying  to push people  to climb freesolo  but more to invite people to understand  that aging isn't a fatality  and we can still do a lot of things .  Do not hesitate  to comment  or to DM me .

Alain Robert - 5.2K Likes - Already  two months  since I had been confronted  to this dangerous  situation  which I had to climb up and down  the Gt tower in Makati Philippines after being stuck two meters below the summit and with as a sole option down climbing  the entire building  which in total made me climb 438m.

A building  that I have climbed  on two occasions . My first time in 2011 shortly  after the opening of the building and the second time more recently  on the 20th of November  2023 with my friend  climber  @alexis.landot . Each time I have had to use a safety  rope under the requirements of the Dubai's authorities .

Alain Robert - 5K Likes - The Blue Cross blue shield in Philadelphia that could be 5.12c  is amongst  the hardest  building  in the world  with the condition  of using only one Crack  which it was for me mandatory  as lacking of wingspan for using two . Otherwise  it's a complete  game changer  as with two Cracks it will be a lot easier . Mostelikely  3 to 4 levels lower in terms of difficulties and maybe only 5.11a or b . I climbed  it in 1997 when I was at my best period . This building  is really hard as the horizontal  lips are very thin but also the vertical  ones running the building  from bottom  to top and it is so tiny that it is impossible  to jam the tip of one foot . So instead  you can only progress with some very hazardous  frictions  on the windows  which is terribly  unsecure and nerves wracking  when you are naeraly climbing  200m like that freesolo .

Alain Robert - 4.8K Likes - Back in 1991 when I did climb  freesolo  the 1st  two 5.13d in the climbing  history which is from far away my true legacy with 15 other routes in between 5.13b up to 5.13d . Unfortunately  overshadowed by buildings although  they are much easier but also mainly because  I was freesoloing  hard grades  on rocks  before  the internet . And I have pushed the game really far away by climbing  some routes extremely  random with a chance to make it alive that were sometimes only at 50/50 which it was requiring  from my side an enormous  faith in myself  but also the invisible .

Things I did in 1991 and before the internet but not only one route but fifteen in between 5.13bupto5.13d. But most interestingly is that I did all of that  after a terrible  accident  in 1982 that left  me permanently  disabled with 66% disability  that is mainly located  on my fingers , wrists and elbows but also my left internal ear that is making me suffering  from vertigo ever since .

Alain Robert - 4.6K Likes - Down climbing  freesolo  and all the more in Verdon  is rather impressive  since you are starting from the top . There is always  that very strange feeling when you are leaving  the horizontal of the plateau that is somehow  representing life and all of the sudden  you are retrieving yourself  into an hostile element  in the event  of a fall and it is rather a very complicated  mental exercise.

Climbing  freesolo  is amazing  but we need to keep in our minds that it's a one way ticket . For me mastering  fear is my story . As a young  boy afraid  of everything  and especially  heights,  falls and deaths there was a giant step in between  the person I was and the one I'm not.  what saved me is my dream . I wanted  to become  courageous . I had to decide wether a dream  was going to remain  just a dream or wether I could  potentially  realize it out of willingness  and willpower .

That standardization  that is is killing us a little more every single day passing . So climbing  illegally  and freesolo  using my cowboy boots and silver snakes outfit  allows me to send a signal as it is not only about climbing but is is about being different  and to stop following  the herds . I'm hoping  to get a lot of questions  on that matter and do not hesitate  to DM me .

I had to fully refocus on to a fighter and I have decided  that no matter I was going to make it alive and I have put all my strength into the battle . it was no longer a battle for a target but to live . I have encountered  halfway through  a major obstacle as the Crack was narrowing  to a point that I nearly couldn't  any longer jaming  the tip of my foot but I finally made it and after a battle that roughly last 45mn I was standing  at the top of what im still considering  as the hardest  building  I have ever climbed  freesolo . it was in 1998 . On my specific  scale of difficulties from 1 to 10 that  I have created  only for buildings  its a 10 as if using the grade as we are using on rocks  it would be be 8a . Once again it's only a suggestion . Recently  Adam Ondra  has climbed a building top rope  in Prague  and it would be 8c/8c  . There again it's in my opinion difficult  to use the same system  as on rocks as so different  as climbing a building  is only repetitive and it is more an effort that is claiming  a very good indurance  for the hard ones .

I have encountered halfway through a major obstacle as the Crack was narrowing to a point that I nearly couldn’t any longer jaming the tip of my foot but I finally made it and after a battle that roughly last 45mn I was standing at the top of what im still considering as the hardest building I have ever climbed freesolo . it was in 1998 . On my specific scale of difficulties from 1 to 10 that I have created only for buildings its a 10 as if using the grade as we are using on rocks it would be be 8a . Once again it’s only a suggestion . Recently Adam Ondra has climbed a building top rope in Prague and it would be 8c/8c . There again it’s in my opinion difficult to use the same system as on rocks as so different as climbing a building is only repetitive and it is more an effort that is claiming a very good indurance for the hard ones . #climbing #freesolo #masteringfear #challenge #resilience #adventure #mindset #climbinginspiration

Alain Robert - 3.9K Likes - climbing  doesn't  have to be necessarily  difficult . it is something  that became  so spontaneous over the last 50 years I have been  climbing  freesolo . Here @alilavillasuluwatu it is rather enjoyable  with such an enjoyable  snd relaxing  environment.

Alain Robert - 3.8K Likes - climbing  freesolo  has never been  a sport but more like a life path  and a life time philosophy.  Challenging  my life and sometimes  living outside my comfort  zone is what did allow me to see marvels in things that a lot of people are not seeing anylonger  or who would  find it completely  insignificant.

Alain Robert - 3.8K Likes - Sometimes  when I'm looking at that already  fifty years old career  climbing  freesolo  I just can't believe  it . From that little boy afraid  of everything  and especially  heights,  fall and death but also that same little boy who had a dream  that was becoming  courageous . Somehow an amazing  life path climbing  freesolo  on rocks the hardest route in 1991 to 200 buildings at today freesolo.  I got to pinch myself  at nearly 62 to be sure that it wasn't  just a dream .

Alain Robert - 3.7K Likes - Climbing  freesolo  is clearly  potentially  dangerous and there is ways of dealing  with our stress's which one of them is the way we are breathing  and remaining  calm and positive  under difficult situations  as it is allowing  us to give the best from our body .

Alain Robert - 3.7K Likes - Climbing on my way down  the 218m Gt international tower in Makati Philippines after I have reached a dead end two meters below the summit  and as a only option down climbing  the entire  building  that is rather unsafe due to those aluminum  slats  only stapled  on the surface  of the building  and that are barely  holding  my weight  as existing only on a decorative  purpose  but nevertheless  for tracking a body .
