A daredevil climber scaled a high-rise crane in west London - dressed as Donald Trump.

Wearing a suit and a Donald Trump mask, George King, 19, climbed up the crane, which is near the Westfield shopping centre in Shepherds Bush, without any safety gear.

Video footage then shows him walking along the crane which is hundreds of metres tall.

He performs a series of heart-stopping stunts including hanging from the crane with one hand.

George said he performed the nail-biting feat to send out a positive message about mental health - 'not conforming to negative views' such as sexism and racism'.

He said: 'I wanted to do the most dramatic stunts known to urban free climbing - to raise awareness to important mental health messages.'

'I was dressed as Donald Trump to try create an ironic twist and make the video more eye-catching to the messages I am trying to convey.'

George is seen dangling off the crane with one hand whilst holding the #itsoktotalk symbol in the other - a movement that aims to get men talking about mental health, mental illness and wellbeing.

At the start of the video a message is shown which says: 'follow your heart, passion and love and meaning will follow'; do not give in to the negative beliefs of 'SOME' political figures. PROMOTE POSITIVITY!'

George explained: 'Essentially I'm trying to raise awareness of bringing about positivity and not conforming to negative views such as racism and sexism.'

George, who started free climbing when he was 10-years-old, is no stranger to death defying stunts.

In August this year, he became the first person to scale the world's tallest freestanding climbing wall, Bjoeks Climb Center, in Groningen, Netherlands - without ropes and a harness.

Then in October, he became the first person to free climb the UK's tallest climbing wall without any safety gear.

George climbed the 118ft wall in Brighouse, West Yorkshire at 4.30am after breaking into the site by using a rubber boat on a nearby canal to avoid being detected by security cameras.

The video of George climbing the crane is available on George's Powers of Passions YouTube channel and Instagram page - which aim to encourage people to discover a personal passion.

George said of Powers of Passions: 'As a former sufferer of depression, I was lucky enough to have a passion in climbing. Whenever I experienced a trigger of depression, I found happiness through climbing – the freedom and peace I felt whilst doing the climb aided my psychological thoughts and led me to a better place. Whenever I feel depressed, I climb, and naturally, with no medication, I have instantaneous relief. I believe that a person's passion does not have to be climbing, nor does it have to be anything related to what I do. I believe that every one of us has a gift; your mission is to find that gift, make it your passion.'
