NEW DELHI: A
Polish daredevil
was
arrested
in Buenos Aires Tuesday as he tried to scale a 30-storey building without
ropes
, only to be removed by
firefighters
.
Marcin Banot, dressed in an Argentine football jersey, was intercepted by the onlookers gathered below when he had climbed 25 floors of the
Globant building
.
More than 30 firefighters, ambulances and police cars were rushed to the scene after someone inside the building called an emergency line.
The firefighters brought him down -- an attempt which the man did not resist.
Back on the ground, Banot was arrested, and risks being ordered to pay the costs for the
rescue operation
, officials said.
The 36-year-old has attempted similar stunts in several nations and has hundreds of thousands of followers on
social networks
.
He had already tried to climb the same building last week, but was prevented by police.
