From Suicidal to Scaling Walls: India’s Amazing Monkey King

It started as a suicide attempt. Abandoned at a temple as a young child, Jyoti Raj was being abused by the man who had taken him in—and he felt as though he couldn’t go on. So one day he climbed up a steep rock with the intention of jumping to his death.

That’s when he decided to use his talent for climbing to make a name for himself. By watchin
