Notorious free climber and YouTuber Adam Lockwood is believed to have scaled the tallest building in the UK, The Shard in London.

Once at the top, Lockwood proceeded to post several selfies he took from the skyscraper.
A number of emergency services responded to the scene including the London Fire Brigade and the London Ambulance Service, while rail passengers at the nearby London Bridge station were diverted to other exits as the area around The Shard's base was cordoned off.
Although a court had previously banned the thrill seeker from climbing tall buildings, he had breached it, narrowly avoiding jail time.
Three people have been arrested by The Metropolitan Police in connection with the latest incident.
Lockwood previously made news after climbing a 1,200ft crane in Dubai in June 2022.
In July 2019, Manchester City Council granted Lockwood a three-year injunction against anti-social behavior.
He was prohibited from riding on buses, trams and train exteriors, climbing buildings and entering construction sites in England and Wales.
