I love a castle as much as the next girl (probably a bit more) but this woman is willing to do a lot more than I am to get into one. Even when it’s not necessary.
In front of several tourists, Ma Jei climbed a 70 foot Zhonghau Castle wall, in Nanjing, China with impressive grace and ease in order to avoid having to pay the entrance fee which would have cost her about $4. Take a look at her in action…
According to the Daily Mail, “Thrifty Jei – who had no rope or safety equipment – told fellow visitors she’d grown up in Nanjing, Jiangsu province, climbing the walls of Zhonghau Castle since childhood and had never once paid to get in.”
“She ran up the wall like a goat and made it look easy. But when people tried it for themselves they saw it wasn’t quite as simple as they thought,” said one tourist. Two of the daredevils fell and broke their legs while three others had to be rescued by police.
This is why you leave the superhero-ing up to the professionals, folks.
