In the screams, the topless athletes, like Spider-Man, move their arms under the steel frame directly under the overpass, and sometimes rotate their bodies. In just a few minutes, they climbed from one side of the 40-meter-long overpass to the other with their bare hands, giving people a visual sense of "Mission Impossible" in Tom Cruise style, which attracted citizens and tourists along the river to stop and watch and take pictures.

This is not a movie, but a real street extreme fitness scene in life. Since May, a footbridge in the moat of the Second Ring Road in Beijing has become a holy place for this kind of street extreme fitness-"climbing the bridge by hand", and the short video platform is full of existence.

In February, 2022, the fitness blogger "BOSS Ocean" attracted many friends and talented people to participate in the challenge of climbing the bridge with bare hands. Ocean told Lazy Bear Sports that the cumulative broadcast volume of various challenge videos in the whole network has reached 5 billion, and it is still increasing at a high speed. Many fitness experts and sports bloggers from all over the country have come here, and some professional athletes have also tried their hand.

If last summer, Maliang River attracted the attention of the sports crowd, then this summer, the most dazzling scenery on the moat of the Second Ring Road in Beijing belongs to them.

Eager to have a try.

"To the limit! This is already a ceiling-level operation in China! "

A fitness expert named Brother Bin, who won the championship of Extreme Warrior, completed the freehand climbing of the 40-meter-long overpass in 2 minutes. After his successful challenge, he commented on the ocean scene.

Now, almost every day, dozens of people challenge to climb the bridge with their bare hands on the moat in Beijing, but only a handful of people really succeed in climbing the bridge. Climbing the bridge with bare hands tested the challenger's grip strength, finger strength and endurance. Most people failed to climb the whole course and fell into the water under the bridge with a splash, declaring the challenge failed.

A challenger who fell into the water after climbing 10 meters told Lazy Bear Sports that although the river was cold, he was always full of enthusiasm. He was even more excited to see so many talented people playing here and so many enthusiastic spectators along the coast.

Most of the people who took part in the challenge of climbing the bridge with their bare hands were men, mostly fitness experts and sports bloggers. Many people who fail to challenge often come back another day and challenge again and again. Climbing the bridge by hand looks simple, but it is very difficult to operate and the chance of success is very small. Without certain finger strength and core strength, it is difficult to complete it for the first time.

Challenger with injured hands.

Ocean told Lazy Bear Sports that after his first challenge here was successful last year, he posted the video on the Internet and exploded instantly. Many people are eager to try after seeing his video. Up to now, more than 100 people have come to challenge, but only100 people have succeeded. Many people choose to give up playing after just touching it.

At present, the number of people climbing the bridge by hand is about 150-200, some of whom live in Beijing and some from other places. There are fitness experts, national athletes, gymnastics champions, professional athletes, rock climbing champions, parkour experts, street fitness experts, retired special forces personnel, and many online celebrities.

As the initiator, Ocean has now become an experienced "instructor". He explained the essentials of technical movements for each challenger, and then posted his own video to his personal platform. Challengers will also post through personal accounts. Over the past six months, Ocean has recorded many shocking climbing moments, and the challenging atmosphere has gradually formed and become stronger.

Climbing the bridge with bare hands has also begun to attract women's attention and participation. At ordinary times, more than 20 female pull-ups can take part in the challenge, and because of the increase of female challengers, bridge climbing has also been upgraded to a "challenge". The 40-meter-long footbridge released 10 rings, and the challenger grabbed the rings from one side of the bridge in turn until the other side.

A Chinese-American mixed-race girl named Ariana 12 years old challenged the rings of the 40-meter overpass again and again, and the ocean set the difficulty coefficient as nine planets. The audience exclaimed "cool" and the scene boiled.
