A TEENAGE risks his life and the safety of others and takes his life in his hands \u2014 swinging from a tower crane 650ft in the air.<\/p>\n
Adam Lockwood, from Wigan, dangled by his arms after climbing the huge structure in Paris with a friend.<\/p>\n
The 18-year-old, who has been scaling buildings, cranes and bridges for the last three years, insisted he felt no fear during his latest escapade.<\/p>\n
He said: \u2018I\u2019d been to Paris for family holidays before but never for this, so it was unreal to see \u2014 an insane view.<\/p>\n
\u2018There are no words to describe how dangling at that height feels but I wasn\u2019t scared. I don\u2019t really feel fear anyway but, when you\u2019re doing something as serious as a 200-metre dangle, there\u2019s no room for fear.<\/p>\n
\u2018It increases the chance of something going wrong, so you just block it out.\u2019<\/p>\n
Adam, who posed for his friend with a camera in his mouth, sneaked on to a building site to go up the crane during a six-day trip to the French capital.<\/p>\n
He said: \u2018There are risks in everyday life, not just climbing.\u2019<\/p>\n
The risks run deeper than his own life.\u00a0 Job site safety, the employment of others.\u00a0 This teen can climb cliffs, not tower cranes<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
