An unidentified man was seen climbing down a 17-story building without a safety rope, in the Russian city of Perm last week. The man descended from near the top of the building via a lattice design, which gave him plenty of hand and footholds for the descent. Footage capturing Perm's real life 'spiderman' descending down the 17-story building unharmed has gone viral on social media. Please don't try this at home.

Real-life Spider-Man Pavel Gogulan, hailing from St Petersburg, Russia, continued to defy gravity with a heart-stopping stunt in the capital of Mexico. The 24-year-old climbed to the top of a 400-foot-high building in the centre of Mexico City without any equipment or permission and filmed the entire climb on GoPro camera attached to his head. The footage has been cut to make viewing easier.
People's spidey-senses are tingling all across the Colombian capital of Bogota when they see the high-flying acrobatics of real-life Spiderman, Freddy Duque. The Colombian street artist swings 'spidey-style' from highway bridges to show off his superhero moves and make some quick cash in the process. His daring pirouettes and upside-down antics cause gasps from motorists as he swings around from a white cloth beneath a bridge with no support cables. The only thing separating him from a quick trip to the pavement are his own hands and feet. Freddy calls himself the "Colombian Spiderman" and has been performing in character for three years in Medellin and six month in Bogota. Juggling and music weren't enough for this acrobat, so he started his daring and shocking routine to make sure that drivers looked up from their commute and watched him risk his life for their entertainment. Freddy's day job doesn't come with benefits, pension, or medical insurance, but it sure beats sitting in a cubicle. What do you think about this death-defying street performance?
If you're afraid of heights, you should skip this video right now. Chinese builders unveiled at 262-foot-long glass skywalk at a theme park in Chongqing district of Wansheng, and it looks absolutely terrifying. The glass-bottomed protrusion extends over a scenic river valley and tourists can look down to see a dizzying drop of about a thousand feet, right below them. Tens of thousands of thrill-seeking tourists waited for their chance to feel the stomach churning sensation for the opening of the V-shaped glass walkway on April 1, just a few days before Ching Ming Festival holiday, and it was definitely no joke. The skywalk is so huge that the managing company has applied to the Guinness World record, hoping to win the title of the longest glass skywalk in the world.
