Bloody immigrants - coming along and jumping in to climb 3 stories up the outside of a building to rescue a little boy, just as the locals were preparing to put down their cameras and do the same. No sense of our local culture in Europe - why can’t they integrate with us? :nono:

Agreed. Some cultures are just never going to mesh well, are they?

The other guy that had hold of him, surely he could’ve hauled him over the balcony or am I missing something?

The guy on the balcony is leaning round a partition and looks like the second person with him is holding on to him as well, guess he didn't have the traction to haul the child up without toppling over himself.

Yup, this. Other bloke just seems to be casually dangling the kid - who must weigh not much more than a feather - by his arm while SuperSpiderMan scales the building. Just all looks a bit implausible.

No he isn't. Go and watch it again and notice: 1. The child is having to edge along to the bloke on the balcony because 2. He is beyond a partition and has to lean round in order to reach him. He only gets a grip once the other bloke has arrived climbing up

Just putting myself in the position of this hero - has anyone considered that he might not actually want to be French?

Staged imo.

I've seen this a couple of times now. Staged by whom? Do you really think some mysterious person thinks it's a good idea to dangle a child from a balcony so someone can come along to rescue him?

Just think about it for a second.

Just think about it for a second.

And for what reason?

A child as light as a feather (average weight of a four year old - 2st 9.5lb - 17 kg)?
Being lifted one handed around a partition? Ok, I'd like to see you try it.

I hope you’ve told those gullible Frenchies of your concerns, I imagine they wouldn’t have checked out the whole incident before letting the guy meet the French President, and getting citizenship.
