Jessie Graff has done stunt work for movies like Iron Man 2 and X-Men: First Class, and she’s also a well-known female competitor in the televised sport American Ninja Warrior. This week, clad as Wonder Woman, Graff broke a record by defeating an especially challenging obstacle course.
ANW is known for its intense obstacle courses that often best even body-builders with years of training. Competitors often have to climb up walls, jump across water and swing with ropes—and it’s often muscular, tall men who survive. (Kacy Catanzaro gained fame after becoming the first woman to qualify for the show’s finals in 2014.)
Graff took on the Los Angeles Regional tournament with ease and became the only woman there to move on after defeating the floating steps and the daunting “escalator.” And, as the announcers point out, she is the first woman to have conquered a 14.5-foot “warped wall.”
