Teen knife-throwing prodigy stuns global audiences

A "knife-throwing girl" has captivated global audiences with her remarkable videos on platforms like Douyin, showcasing unparalleled precision in throwing knives while spinning, garnering widespread attention on the internet.

The 13-year-old girl, Zhang Keyi, hails from Ningbo in East China's Zhejiang province.

Considering her introverted personality, Zhang's parents sent her to a martial arts training session to learn Sanda (a type of kickboxing in China) and nunchakus. But later, she was attracted by knife throwing. "Her body coordination is excellent. After learning some basic knife control techniques, she quickly became even more stable on target than many adults in just a few days of practice," said Zhang's father, Zhang Demin.
