The Eiffel Tower was evacuated on Sunday afternoon after a shirtless man was spotted climbing the iconic landmark just hours before the Paris Olympics closing ceremony. The incident, captured on video, shows the man scaling the 1,083-foot structure and positioning himself above the Olympic rings on the second level. In response, over 30,000 police officers have been deployed across Paris to ensure security during the final Olympic events. The closing ceremony, scheduled to start at 12:30 am IST, will take place at Stade de France in Saint-Denis, far from the Eiffel Tower.
