The incredible Alexis Landot

Meet Alexis Landot a 23-year-old urban free solo climber, a Ninja Warrior, and parkour athlete with an unwavering passion to reach new heights.

Born to rise

Alexis has been climbing ever since he could walk—climbing everywhere and everything. Suffering from anxiety and a fear of losing control over his life, he soon discovered that climbing was a form of therapy for him. While scaling skyscrapers without equipment evokes a sense of fear in most people, it’s where Alexis feels most at home. “If you don’t let your emotions get the best of you, you can make the best out of any situation.”

A legend in the making

Having only free solo climbed for three years, Alexis has already fulfilled his dream of scaling the Burj Khalifa with his inspiration and role model, Alain Robert. What made it even better is that it was for a cause he believes in: creating awareness for climate change as a part of Mashreq’s #Climb2Change initiative. Alexis has become a hero for his generation. Having found his life’s purpose, he chases his dreams with fearless determination. Remember his name as Alexis will surely go down in history as one of the greats.
