Chaos came to central London after a man climbed the Eros statue in Piccadilly Circus and danced for crowds.

The man scaled the 35 foot statue as dozens of police cordoned off the iconic landmark and closed roads for an hour.

Officers tried to to coax down the unnamed 26-year-old, who eventually climbed down by which time there were four fire engines and a cherry picker on the scene.
