One day, when he was 12, he returned home from school. He didn39。t find his keys. It was 3:30pm and his parents worked until 6：00 pm. Alain looked at his apartment on the eighth floor. He saw an open window. He closed his eyes and imagined himself climbing the building. When he opened his eyes, he told himself, I can do it. Fifteen minutes later, he was in his house and his fear of heights was gone. Today, Alain still climbs buildings. In 2003, he climbed a building in London dressed as Spiderman （蜘蛛人） to advertise the movie. In 2004, he climbed Taipei 101 （one of the tallest buildings in the world）. To reach the top of a building, Alain uses only his hands and special shoes. Alain climbs as a hobby. He also does it to make money for charity （for poor children and the homeless）. When he climbs, he wants to send a message to people. If you have a dream, you must be brave and keep trying. If something bad happens, don39。t give up.
