BBC NEWS | Middle East | Cairo bemused by German art stunt: "A man apparently stuck to a wall with his bare hand sparked a brief emergency in central Cairo, before rescuers found out it was part of a German art show.

Installation artist Johan Lorbeer had harnessed himself to a fake hand secured high off the ground to the wall of the Goethe Cultural Centre.

He had already got down, leaving some clothing and the hand in place, when the emergency services arrived."
