SAN FRANCISCO—Maison Des Champs, or better known as “Pro-Life Spiderman,” is not only a bold free-climber, but also a pro-life activist who surprised onlookers and made headlines after he was spotted on the morning of May 3, climbing up the second tallest building on the West Coast with no equipment.
Then about 48 hours later, the University of Nevada Las Vegas student was in New York City scaling the New York Times building, hanging up two banners that criticized abortion on the way up. On Sunday, he scaled the Renaissance Center in Detroit.
“After the news broke about Dr. Cesare Santangelo, that’s what really sparked all this. I’ve been wanting to climb the Salesforce Tower for a while. I’ve been looking at buildings in New York and what not. But when that happened, I was like, okay they’re not investigating this. That is absolutely insane. If I can do anything I have to do it now,” Des Champs told NTD in an interview.
