A 73-year-old woman in Jinan, capital of Shandong Province, can pull a 4.2-ton van forward for a dozen meters with a rope in her teeth.

The woman, surnamed Wang, started practicing martial arts at the age of 40 to keep healthy. She remained so energetic that when she was 66 years old she chased a robber on her bicycle for more than a kilometer and recovered the bag she was robbed of.

Wang has long paid attention to building the strength of her teeth. During Spring Festival, China Central Television showed how Wang pulled the van with the rope in her teeth, winning her nationwide admiration.
