Blackbelt Granny.

Posted by Alex in Sports, World Records on April 12, 2007 at 11:36 am


Don’t mess with Mary Athay, Britain’s toughest granny, who just got her blackbelt at 62 …

While many ladies her age may look forward to a game of bingo, Mary completed a gruelling five hour session of hand to hand combat to gain the top martial arts grade.

She can already smash through two-inch thick wooden blocks and roof slates with her bare hands, wield a bo staff and now wants to start sword training.

The supergran only took up the challenging sport in 2002, because she was bored of aerobics classes and wanted to explore new ways to stay in shape.
