French "Spiderman" Alain Robert successfully climbed one of Dubai’s tallest skyscrapers on Sunday. The 52-year-old reached the top of the 310-meter high Cayan Tower after only 70 minutes. This was the second time that Robert has climbed a landmark building in Dubai. The first one was the world’s tallest building, the Burj Khalifa Tower, 828 meters high, which he climbed four years ago in 2011. Although the Cayan Tower is not as tall as Burj Khalifa, it twists as it ascends, which adds to the difficulty of climb. "It's actually very dangerous. We are very nervous, scared about him if something happens. My heart!” said a spectator. Robert has climbed many of the world's most famous building, including the Eiffel Tower and the Empire State Building, but he said this climb was not easy. "They said the temperature was 41 degrees. We already knew that I could make it, but you know, you're always questioning in yourself. I'm nearly 53, I'm no longer a teenager or even a young man,” he said.
