Assassin’s Creed Wall-Climbing Can Actually Be Done

Assassin’s Creed Wall-Climbing Can Actually Be Done

OK, so he doesn’t have a heavy cloak and half-a-dozen weapons weighing him down, and he’s not being chased by the local constabulary, but this guy still does a damn good impression of Assassin’s Creed’s trademark climbing.

I’d always figured the game’s creators took a few liberties when it came to the speed with which you could shimmy up a vertical wall, using only a few cracks and bricks as footholds, but shows what I know.

Apparently the guy is a street performer who does this all the time (hence the powder “stains” on his regular holds), but no amount of familiarity takes way from just how impressive this is.
