Watch out ninjas, Jessie Graff is coming for your title!
The professional stunt woman is well known her appearances on American Ninja Warrior and the records she has broken on the show.
In 2016, she became the first woman ever to complete Stage 1 of the Las Vegas Finals course and in 2017 she became the first woman to compete in, and to successfully finish, Stage 2 in Las Vegas (though there was no time requirement that year).
Jessie has fast become a fan favorite on the show and many hope to see her go all the way in the finals.
She is back again for this season of American Ninja Warrior and she has once again proved what a fighting spirit she has. She is unstoppable!
At the Miami City Quarterfinals, Jessie put in a strong effort and wowed the audience and the millions of people who watched from home.
The Miami course had only 11 people clear it and Jessie was one of the 11. Thank goodness!
Jessie spoke with American Ninja Warrior Nation and explained the changes she has made to her training since last season.
Everything is different. I’m now doing martial arts and stunt fight training eight hours a day and then trying to squeeze in as much Ninja stuff as I can. It would be really unprofessional if I showed up for work the next day exhausted from extra training. So I’m trying to find that balance. But work has to be the priority right now.
Jessie flew through the first few obstacles on the course with ease, making it look like anyone could do it, but only she could make it look so easy.
The crowd cheered her name as she made it through the balance obstacles in a full sprint. She looked almost like she wasn’t even touching the course she was moving so fast!
She got through the entire course in under 5 minutes and she was the first woman so far on season 10 of American Ninja Warrior to do it!
The video was shared on Facebook and since then it has gotten 2.5 million views, 38,000 likes, 30,000 shares, and over 2,500 comments.
One Facebook user thinks that she looks like an Olympian:
She looks like an Olympian, but not like the every year athlete kind, more like the goddess kind. Hello there Nike (Greek goddess of victory), what brings you to this mortal competition?
While another fan wrote:
Big fan. You always look athletic and beautiful but this season you look like you are in AMAZING shape!!!!Go get it girl…
You can freaking win this thing!
While one Facebook user thinks that Jessie is someone to idolize:
Forget about vapid Kardashians and skinny super models. These are the healthy, strong, capable women that young girls should be looking up to and trying to be like.Congratulations Jessie Graff! That was a fantastic run!
Seriously, who isn’t rooting for Jessie on American Ninja Warrior? Hopefully, she goes very far this season!
