The French climber Alain Robert scaled the Vysotsky skyscraper in Yekaterinburg, Wednesday.

Press and spectators looked on as the Frenchman prepared his safety gear, starting the climb from ground zero of the 188.3-metre-tall (617.8-foot) structure. Taking two-and-a-half hours to climb 52 floors, Robert conducted the final stages of his climb without safety equipment.

The French climber plans to conquer the summit of a Dubai skyscraper for his next project.
