That particular strand of urban exploration is also the subject of a new survival thriller, Fall, about two climbers who scale a 2,000ft radio tower and – through a series of implausible but nevertheless nerve-shredding events – get stuck at the top. His solicitor said it was motivated by internet stardom. He then received a two-year suspended sentence for breaching the order.

Lockwood previously had a three-year anti-social behaviour injunction against climbing buildings and cranes, riding on the exterior of various vehicles, or entering building sites in England and Wales. He passed and waved at a couple staying on the 40th floor as he climbed up barefoot, and posted a selfie of himself at the 1,000ft summit. They are among the highest-profile names in a scene that's spawned a more terrifying trend: clambering to insane heights to balance or dangle in precarious positions, in pursuit of a perfect, death-defying selfie.Īmong the more fame-hungry free climbers is 21-year-old Adam Lockwood, who scaled The Shard at dawn on Sunday. Posting his exploits to 1.5 million followers across Instagram and YouTube, Raskalov – not his real name – has the pictures and videos to prove it. Surrounded by fog, they had to wait there – at a stomach-lurching 2,000ft – for 18 hours before they could descend.

The 29-year-old Ukrainian has climbed, explored, and clambered up many structures: the Central Park Tower (1,550ft), the Manhattan Bridge, Christ the Redeemer in Rio, the Lotte World Tower (1,823ft) in Korea – even the Great Pyramid of Giza. In 2014, Raskalov – along with his urban-exploration partner, Vadim Makhorov – climbed the Shanghai Tower.

“We try to play everything safe.” Coming from urban explorer Vitaliy Raskalov, those might seem like tall words.
