Forming two ropes, they began the assault on the metal structure of the public monument. The ascent, supposedly illegal by a police officer, turns into a chase... Alain Pol films the climbers going to the end of their sport: they reach the flag pole, abseil down, then cool off in the Seine , while at the end of the scenario the policeman is embarked by the van of the asylum of Charenton which he himself asked for the "madmen of the Eiffel Tower".
