Banot was intercepted by firefighters on the 25th floor and was brought back to the ground. Once on the ground, the 36-year-old Polish national was arrested and ordered to pay the risks and fines.
This was Banot's second attempt to climb the Globant building. His last attempt was foiled by police officials who prevented him from scaling the building.
Banot has pulled similar stunts in other countries, hence the nickname of "Spider Man". His students across the world have garnered a widespread social media following.
Banot was arrested in 2019 for performing a similar student in Warsaw. He was arrested by officials after he scaled a 557-foot-tall Marriott hotel in Warsaw without any safety equipment.
As per the Daily Mail UK, Banot has also scaled the 500-foot Humber Bridge to raise funds for a girl suffering from glioma. His other students include climbing Romania's 1,000-foot chimney, Barcelona's 380-foot Melia Sky, and Silesia's factory chimney.
