People Are Freaking Out Over this Stuntwoman’s Photos at the Emmys

Jessie Graff’s EMMYS photos are driving people crazy.

Jessie Graff is a professional stuntwoman and a contestant on the Emmy-nominated competition show American Ninja Warrior. When she arrived to the Emmys red carpet on Sunday night, she really showed off her stunt moves.

This photo of Graff’s high-kicking turn on the red carpet was shared thousands of times on Twitter overnight after being posted by user @aoiph with the caption: “This is the best red carpet photo I’ve ever seen.”

But, her kick was not the only amazing move she had on the red carpet. Graff later took to Twitter explaining what happened:

Graff, has worked as a stunt double on Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D and Supergirl. But, she is most known for her appearances on American Ninja Warrior. Earlier this month, she was the first woman in the history of American Ninja Warrior to complete the Stage 1 qualifer, and the most successful female contestant ever.

Speaking to USA Today, she explained: “My first year doing Ninja Warrior, I didn’t really know what it was about. After that, when so many people were like, ‘I didn’t know women could do that,’ I thought, ‘Then, we better show you.’”
