David Beckham – athlete, husband, father of four, model and ELLE cover star – can now add free-running to his CV.
Yesterday, Becks was spotted scaling the roof of the Old Truman Brewery in Brick Lane, Shoreditch – in his pants.
The sight caused quite a stir amongst lucky onlookers on Twitter, with one writing: 'David Beckham is currently on the roof of my workplace IN HIS PANTS! And that's a tweet I never expected to write! :).'
Extraordinary as it all sounds, it was just another day’s work for Becks – the former footballer was shooting an advert, much in the same vein as last season's LA-based one, for his new collection of H&M bodywear.
We're pretty devastated we missed it. Here’s hoping Becks has caught the free-running bug and will be clambering all over our office roof soon…
The new H&M bodywear collection will be in stores in February 2014
