Bare-chested climber had ascended halfway up north face of structure when he was intercepted by Paris police
A climber scaled the north face of the Eiffel Tower in Paris on Sunday, the last day of the Olympics, but was intercepted by police midway up, police said. “At 2.45 pm, an individual was seen climbing the Eiffel Tower,” a police spokesman said. “The police immediately intervened and arrested the individual.”
Videos showed the bare-chested man skirting the Olympic rings as he made his way up without ropes.
