Authorities arrest me, release me, and then invite me back to host public events. I think it's interesting.

I feel completely alone - it's like melting, I am the structure, and I am also Alain Robert.

All these buildings are like mountains I would like to climb, but I am forbidden.

When I was 12, I forgot the keys to my parent's apartment. So I simply climbed up seven floors to get in.

People need to learn to live with more risk.

Soloing is the most beautiful way of climbing; no material constrains, just you and the rock, the sun, nature; a kind of school for courage, willpower and self-confidence.

To me, climbing is like eating or drinking. I have to do it; it's part of my life.
