A daring girl scaled a living room's walls for the ultimate TV experience in southern China.

The video was filmed in the city of Fuzhou in Fujian Province on September 9.

A girl was seen using the corner of a living room wall to perch herself just below the ceiling, suspended in the air. With her legs pressed firmly against the wall corners, she sat cross-legged and gazed intently at her favourite show. As if this wasn't surprising enough, she even rested her hands comfortably in her lap, looking like a scene straight out of a Spider-Man movie.

The child's mother, Ms Ding, spoke about the jaw-dropping incident. "She's always been a cheeky one, fearless from a young age," said Ding.

It wasn't until July 9, when Ding caught her daughter's gravity-defying act on CCTV, that she realised just what her adventurous child was up to. Intrigued and somewhat concerned, she asked her daughter to demonstrate the trick again on July 13.

Ding explained the unusual physics behind her daughter's actions: "Our living room walls are entirely covered in ceramic tiles. Living by the sea makes our home quite humid, and this seems to make it easier for her body to stick to the tiles."

However, she was quick to add her concerns about the dangerous nature of her daughter's antics. Ding has educated her daughter, and afterwards, she hasn't found her climbing the walls again.

The video was provided by local media with permission.
