Marcin Banot is no stranger to daredevil acts. The Polish climber regularly updates his escapades via social media and has accumulated quite a following. However, even he might admit that his latest stunt was slightly overboard. Graced with an Argentina Lionel Messi #10 shirt, Banot attempted to climb a 30-story building in Buenos Aires. Unfortunately for him, for the second time in one week, his plans were foiled.

Marcin Banot almost had his way as he climbed 25 floors of the Globant building. But someone in the building called for an emergency.  At this point, the Pole was climbing on dangerously. The worrying aspect of the climb was that Banot had zero protective equipment other than the Lionel Messi jersey, not even a rope. Firefighters, Ambulances, and police cars arrived soon to the sight. He was removed by the firefighters and fortunately, Banot did not resist their efforts.

On the ground, Banot was arrested and as per the officials, he might have to pay the cost of the rescue operations. The climber has pulled off similar stunts in other countries but his attempts have faltered in Argentina. Notably, last week, he attempted to climb the same building but was stopped by the police. Now, footage of Marcin Banot has emerged after being arrested. He is handcuffed and doesn’t look happy. The caption states, “Everything’s fine, the boy is fine, they’re taking care of it.“

The Lionel Messi jersey on Banot has attracted quite a lot of attention. There is a good chance that the Pole might have been a supporter of the soccer great. In case that’s true, he won’t be the first Messi fan to get on the wrong side of the law.

The time when a fan received a hefty punishment after hugging Lionel Messi

Meeting Lionel Messi is a dream come true for many. An individual with the surname Di decided to take his chance when Argentina played Australia in Beijing, China. Di dribbled past the barrier and security and hugged Lione Messi on the pitch. The happiness unfortunately was short-lived and the stadium officials swarmed him. Soon he was taken into police custody and was banned from entering stadiums for 12 months!

The individual did add that he was quite remorseful regarding the situation. He said, “There were security breaches in the end zone I was in, so I ran down there. I apologize for my behavior, but I am a Lionel Messi fan. And I also did it to show that security is not competent, so I took the opportunity.” For Di, the biggest regret was not being able to take an autograph with the Argentine maestro. As a result, he is planning a visit to Miami for the same. This time, Di did add that he would do it the right way without breaching the security.
