16-year-old Chinese Zao Yicheng has set a world record in speed climbing.
Idman.Biz reports that he made history by covering a 15-meter wall in just 4.58 seconds.
With this, the young athlete surpassed the previous record. It should be noted that the previous best result was 4.6 seconds, and this record belonged to Olympic medalist Sam Watson.
Experts say that in speed climbing, athletes climb up without any mechanical assistance. They rely only on their physical strength and speed. That is why conquering the wall in such a short time is considered particularly impressive.
