NgoMsombuluko ebusuku uJessie Graff ube ngowesifazane wokuqala ukufika esiteji sesi-2 se-American Ninja Warrior. Njengoba endiza esifundweni, wenza izithiyo ezifana ne-Flying Squirrel kanye ne-Jumping Spider-izithiyo ezibe ukushabalala komncintiswano wamadoda amaningi akhulile aphindwe kabili usayizi wakhe-okubukeka kulula. Futhi ukwenze konke ngenkathi egqoke imvunulo enkulu ecwebezelayo eluhlaza (ngokwakhe, hhayi ngaphansi).

UCalifornia oneminyaka engu-32 ubuye abe yiqhawe elingokoqobo langempela emsebenzini wakhe wosuku njengowesifazane onenkani. Lapho engazibulali izifundo ze-Ninja Warrior, ungambona ekhahlela, eshaya ngezibhakela, futhi egxuma esuka ezakhiweni eziphakeme kakhulu ku-CW's "Supergirl" kanye "Ne-Agents of SHIELD" ye-ABC, kanye namamuvi afana ne-"Die Hard" kanye nethi "The Dark Knight. . " Izinto azithandayo ziwukuzilibazisa ngokulinganayo, okuhlanganisa ukuqwala amatshe, ukujima kwesekisi, ubuciko bokulwa, kanye ne-parkour, okuwumkhuba ngokuyisisekelo wokudlula izithiyo zemvelo-cabanga ngawo wonke amadwala, amabhentshi, nezinyathelo ongazithola epaki. indlela esebenza kahle kakhulu. Ngakho-ke, ungasho ukuthi empeleni uyi-ninja empilweni yangempela. O, futhi ngesikhathi sakhe samahhala, uqeqesha iqembu lesikole samabanga aphezulu. (Ufunga uthi usalala kanzima amahora ayisishiyagalombili ebusuku. Ungowesifazane omangalisayo ngempela.)

Noma eseyingane wayeyi-badass. “Umama uthi igama lami lokuqala laliwumphetho ngoba ngangihlale ngigibela phezu kwezinto,” kusho uGraff. "Yize wayeqonde ukuthi 'hlala kude nonqenqema' kodwa ngizwe ukuthi 'Hawu bheka le nto epholile, ngingasondela kanjani?'."

Kwathi lapho eneminyaka engu-3 ubudala, wabona umbukiso we-trapeze esekisini futhi watshela ubaba wakhe ngalolo suku ukuthi wayemthole ebiza ekuphileni kwakhe-ngamazwi amaningi; wayeyingane encane phela. Wenze kahle ezwini lakhe, waqeqesha ezokuzivocavoca kanye nobuciko bamasekisi kusukela ebuntwaneni bakhe futhi wagcina ethathela phezulu esikoleni esiphakeme. Unqobe izicoco zombuso nezikazwelonke futhi ubenamahloni nje okuyisentimitha elilodwa ukuthola ama-Olimpiki ehlobo ngo-2004. Ngempela, ngaleso sikhathi ukukhetha kwakhe umsebenzi kwakungenakugwenywa.

"Ngiyakuthanda ukuphakama phezulu, ngenza noma yini engenza isisu sami sehle," esho ngohlobo lwezintandokazi zakhe azithandayo. "Futhi noma yini engivumela ukuba ngibe nobuciko futhi ngibe yingxenye yendaba; Ngiyakuthanda ukulwa, izikhali, nokujaha izigcawu."

Kepha unobuthakathaka obulodwa kwezemidlalo: ukudansa. "Ngingakwazi ukwenza i-backflip ku-balance beam, akunankinga, kodwa lapho umqondisi engicela ukuthi ngithuthukise ukunyakaza komdanso ku-beam kuqala? Ukwethuka okuphelele!" esho ehleka.

Uzamukele ngenhliziyo yonke ezinye izici zethiyetha emsebenzini wakhe, nokho. Njengomunye wama-Ninja Warriors wesifazane ahamba phambili, cishe waziwa kakhulu ngemvunulo yakhe njengoba eza nekhono lakhe-futhi lokho akubanga ngengozi, usho kanje. “Ngithe uma ngiqala ukubona ukuthi nginomthelela onjani emantombazaneni asemancane, ngabona ukuthi leli yithuba lokukhuthaza izingane ngemvunulo,” usho kanje. "Izingane zibona ingubo ecwebezelayo kuqala bese zibona ukuthi yini engingayenza. Zithi 'Nami ngifuna ukwenza lokho!' bese bebalekela emabhawa abo ezinkawu baqale ukwenza ukudonsa. Kuyamangalisa. " (Gcina ugqozi olungakholeki oluvela kwabesifazane abanamandla ngokuya ngokubuka abesifazane aba-5 be-Badass Abelana Kungani Bethanda Isimo Sabo.)

Akuwona amantombazane amancane kuphela afuna ukuwagqugquzela. Ufuna abesifazane babo bonke ubudala bazi ukuthi nabo bangakwazi ukudonsa ngaphandle kungakhathaliseki ukuthi baneminyaka emingaki noma isigaba sempilo. Waze wafundisa nomama wakhe ukwenza ukudonsa kwakhe okokuqala eneminyaka engama-64! (Funda ukuthi Ungagcina Wenze Kanjani Ukudonsa lapha.) Amandla akhe aphezulu omzimba yilokho okusize ekunqobeni ukunqoba kwakhe embukisweni (mbukele ekuchobozeni inkambo ekulesi siqeshana esingezansi) futhi uthi kuyinganekwane ukuthi abesifazane ngokwemvelo babuthakathaka izingalo, isifuba namahlombe abo.

“Asikho isizathu sokuthi abantu besifazane babe nobunzima bokwakha amandla angaphezulu komzimba kunawaphansi, wukuthi abasibekile isikhathi sokuwuqeqesha sengathi banemilenze,” usho kanje. "Qonda ukuthi ekuqaleni uzozizwa ungenakwenzeka kepha uma unamathela kuyo, wena intando qina. "

Ngisho noma izinhloso zakho zokufaneleka zingahlanganise lutho nokugxumela ngaphandle kwamafasitela, noma ukuncintisana esifundweni sesithiyo ku-TV yangempela, usengazizwa njengeqhawe ejimini yakho siqu. U-Graff wabelana ngezinyathelo ezinhlanu azithandayo noma ubani angayenza ukuze abe namandla, asheshise, futhi angesabi:
