Shock video shows abortion activist dubbed ‘Pro-Life Spiderman’ scale New York Times building to hang protest banners

AN activist who calls himself the "Pro-Life Spider-Man" climbed all 52 stories of The New York Times building, hanging two anti-abortion banners.

Maison DesChamps, known for scaling buildings to shine a light on the pro-life cause, started climbing the iconic building at about 5am on Thursday, according to videos posted to his social media.

The 22-year-old told The US Sun he did so in order to " expose" a doctor who he claims performs late-term abortions, and to "raise money for pro-life charities."

"I have wanted to do this for years and as soon as I found out that the police were not investigating [the doctor], I decided that it was time to act," he said.

"I chose the New York Times building because they refuse to report on [the doctor] in fear the truth will hurt their agenda."

DesChamps hung two banners on the building - on the sixth and seventh floors.

One of the signs read:  “ABORTION KILLS MORE THAN 911 EVERY WEEK!”

The other included an image of a fetus and mentioned the doctor, who DesChamps accused of ";killing this baby."

DesChamps documented the climb on his Instagram page, saying no one had noticed his stunt that early in the morning.

“Oh yeah, the city that never sleeps,” DesChamps said in a clip posted to Instagram. “Well, sleep on this.”
