Some Africans including Nigerians have taken to social media to show their funny sides after the Malian migrant who scaled four-storeys up a building in Paris, France to rescue a dangling toddler became an online sensation. Pictures trending on Facebook show some unidentified Africans jokingly trying to learn how to climb buildings in case the need arises for them to become famous.

Mamoudou Gassama who was nicknamed the Spiderman of Paris – climbed the city apartment block to reach the helpless child.

The gesture earned him honorary French citizenship after meeting with the president, Emmanuel Macron and also a job with the Paris fire service.

After meeting the French president at the Elysee Palace on Monday morning, he was told he would be made a naturalised citizen straight away.

I heard that the President of Mali has offered him a job in the Malian military. Seems his village people are after him. He should better stick with France.

They should just consider the fire service and build their skills in that area or consider para military. It is a great place to work in such countries due to the risks involved. Not a lot of people have that liver to venture in the industry.

I have read some comments who think the whole stuff was even set up - conspiracy theorists will always be present but people should be careful when it comes to imitating stuff on social media. Let's use our smartphones SMARTLY - we have seen people dying or getting themselves injured in all these copy copy. What the Malian did was very risk as he had no safety equipment and he could have easily slipped.

@ the first picture in the Op's post, that guy should just forget it. Mamoudou did not rescue the child only to drop him or her to the ground
