A mother in China was surprised when she discovered the unique way her 8-year-old daughter watches TV. Security footage of the living room revealed that the little girl had talents similar to those of Spider-Girl as she was seen climbing up walls by pressing her hands and feet against them. The video shows another person watching TV, apparently unaware of the girl slowly climbing up to the ceiling in the background.
When asked about her daughter's gravity-defying habits, the mother reveals that she didn't know about them until she watched the security footage. She adds that the little girl has always been a 'daredevil'.
Viewers are left astonished at her talents, with commenters wondering how she manages to do it with such ease. One social media user speculated that the living room's tiled walls could offer more grip for the girl to climb up, while her mother explains that the coastal city in the Fujian province where they live makes the girl more "sticky" due to the humidity.
The shocked mother uploaded her daughter's talents to her Douyin channel, the Chinese version of the popular social media app TikTok, and the video has since gone viral. Viewers are comparing her to beloved Marvel comic character Spider-Girl, with one of them commenting, "Check if your girl has a spider bite on her. If so, you should get the outfit made."
Social media users are suggesting that the girl be sent to sports climbing and gymnastics classes to develop her talents. China has a history of producing world-class gymnasts, with the country securing the most medals for gymnastics (11) at the 2020 Summer Olympics.
