A fairly recent trend, unprotected building climbing, or 'Urban Free Solo' as it has come to be known in the climbing community, is more or less universally illegal, considered a form of trespass. The most promonant name in the field is probably the French climber, Alain Robert, who has climbed famous structures around the world, and has been arrested for it several times.
Often, the style of climbing involved in this field is not incredibly technical, but makes up for this by requiring a great deal of stamina, and of course, the confidence and courage to attempt such climbs without protection.

First off, there are static and dynamic ropes. Static ropes do not stretch and are mostly used for rappelling, hauling, fixed lines, and probably some other stuff I do not know about. This is because none of these activities involve large forces - such as what would be created during a fall. Dynamic ropes stretch, and are the main type of rope used for rock climbing. This is because they stretch to absorb the shock of the climbing rope. In fact, if I remember correctly, some rock climbing ropes can stretch to as much as 30% more than it's original length. Dynamic ropes come in a wide range of diameters and can also be divided into three categories - single ropes, half ropes, and twin ropes. One would choose a certain diameter and type of rope based on the activity they plan on doing.
