How did he manage to get up there? Well seen and nicely processed.

This is a double-take sort of picture. Glance at it once and then look at it again.

Thanks, all.

Well recognised, jjj: Sacré Coeur it was. He gave a very impressive display, which involved taking off his T-shirt, doing various acrobatics, and putting the shirt back on, all the while not dropping the football. I was initially sceptical but stayed to watch, and I'm very glad I did. He was so much better than the talentless, out-of-tune, guitar-strumming pseudo-singers with loud recorded backing tracks who infest the area; I put a generous contribution in his hat.

I expect he climbed, stamper; it's not all that high, and he's quite well-muscled, as you can see.

I've a couple more which I'll dig out when I get back home.

I've seen him when ambling around that area. A rather talented chap.
And nice pic of him too.

Thanks, Eric. I wish I'd taken more but I spent too much time in awe of what he was managing to do. Maybe I'll go back.

I tend to amble via there after meeting up with my Parisian friend who I stay with for her lunch break and I've noticed him a few times. So I'm sure you'll get another chance Jeremy.
