When I climb a building, I've been there already, and carefully planned how to start the climb as well as how to do it.

With buildering, I get to keep that element of danger. Plus, I very much like the feeling of height, and buildings have even more of a feeling of height than rock faces.

I did climb about 80 buildings around the world and I climbed even the five tallest.

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

In fact, it will be very easy to climb the building because of its shape and architecture.

We set ourselves limits, but we are all strong enough to aim higher, to achieve our goals. All we have to do is find such strength within ourselves. Know how to develop it.

I make good money: One speech nets me more than what most people make in six months.

Sometimes doing the forbidden can be nice.

It's a great feeling to know that 100 cops want to stop you doing something and they can't.

I love all people, whatever race they are.

I was not willing to give up because I was born to like taking risks and that is my way of life.
