From: Imdb.com

X-Men star Hugh Jackman turned real-life superhero on Thursday, when he abseiled off a London newspaper building for charity.

The actor, who stars in forthcoming prequel X Men Origins: Wolverine, jumped off the headquarters of fellow Aussie Rupert Murdoch's News International - the home of newspapers The Sun, The Times and the News of the World - to raise money for The Sun's Help for Heroes campaign, which aids British soldiers wounded in conflict.

Jackman was joined in the abseil stunt by newspaper bosses Rebekah Wade, Dominic Mohan and Murdoch's media mogul son James.
