Rock climbing walls are for wusses …. so says a dude who just scaled the Eiffel Tower \u00a0… and the timing of his stunt could not have been worse.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

Watch the vid … the man scales the 330-meter tower, making his way over the blue ring of the Olympics logo … which is temporarily perched on the famed landmark.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

Some guy is climbing on the Olympic Rings at the Eiffel Tower. You can see him on the blue ring.<\/p>\n

Tourists are being evacuated for safety. Entry beneath the tower is closed.<\/p>\n

It’s unclear where the climber kicked off his ascent … but he was spotted gaining some serious height around the tower’s first viewing deck.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

Visitors were escorted away by local police around 3 PM … with some tourists even being stuck on the 2nd floor for around 30 minutes.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

The Eiffel Tower has been a visible landmark during the Paris Summer Games … a temporary stadium was built beneath the looming structure for the beach volleyball portion of the competition. It’s also served as a backdrop for other events.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n
