A French 'Spider-Man' has climbed up a 613ft skyscraper as a 60th birthday treat to himself🤔🕸️

[THREAD] 🧵
Alain Robert aka the 'French Spider Man' pulled off a daring climb over the weekend to mark his 60th birthday.

#SpiderMan
He scaled a huge 48-storey building in Paris without a harness or a rope to prove that age is just a number.

He said: "I want to send people the message that being 60 is nothing. You can still do sport, be active, do fabulous things."
Dressed in red, he climbed using a bag of chalk and a pair of climbing shoes. After making it safely to the top of the 187-metre tall building, he waved his hands to celebrate.

Robert said he wanted the climb to raise awareness about climate change action.
He has climbed more than 150 of the world's tallest structures, including the Eiffel Tower, the Golden Gate Bridge, and even the Burj Khalifa in Dubai—the world's tallest building.
Previously he climbed Salesforce Tower in 45 minutes, but was arrested on his descent.

He pleaded guilty to causing a public nuisance and was ordered to pay £5500 compensation to City of London Police, as well as receiving a ban from climbing any UK building.

We got to speak to a 'real-life' vampire🧛🦇​

[THREAD] 🧵
Merticus, in his 40s, is the head of the Atlanta Vampire Alliance in America and has identified as a vampire since 1997.

While he hides in plain sight, he does feed on human blood😶
#vampires Man hiding
He is what many would consider a sanguinarian vampire – an individual who says they cannot adequately sustain their own physical, mental, or spiritual well-being without the taking of blood from other sources.

As it's spooky season we thought we'd look back at the most mysterious celebrity deaths🤯

[THREAD] 🧵
We have lost many stars over the years in some really tragic ways.

But sometimes when a celebrity passes, the death happens under some really mysterious circumstances that remain unsolved or are still questioned by fans and family members💭
We'll start with iconic sex symbol Marilyn Monroe, the blonde bombshell was highly in demand in Hollywood during the 50’s and early 60’s.

But unfortunately, at the age of 36, the iconic actress died of barbiturate overdose in August 1962. Her death was ruled a probable suicide.
