A young woman used her parkour skills to jump off a bridge and give a pair of muggers the slip.

Incredible CCTV footage shows the moment Noelia Galindo was approached by two knife-wielding crooks on a footbridge at night.

As they closed in on her, she grabbed the handrail and somersaulted over the side of the bridge.

She landed on her feet and legged it as one of the men jumped over the other side of the structure.

The men were carrying a knife when they approached the university student in Bogotá, Colombia.

But after jumping off the footbridge, Noelia says the pair did not try to chase her, as reported by Need To Know.

She explained in a video: “As soon as I finished crossing the bridge, I came across two tall, bulky guys.

“I thought one of them, wearing a hood and a grey jacket, was asking for change from the other, who had a waiter’s apron on.

“When they turned around, I felt scared, terrified, all sorts of things, and I sensed they were getting closer to me.

“One of them even told me to give him everything I had and pulled out a knife.

“My immediate reaction was to grab the railing and jump off the bridge.”

Noelia only injured herself slightly with the quick-thinking move.

She said: “I’m perfectly fine, just my whole back really hurts, probably more from the move I made because my reaction was really quick and agile, but also a bit crazy.

“They kept saying I was asking for trouble walking alone at that time of night.

“I leave the university at 9pm, so I had no other choice.”

The comments flooded in online, with most viewers extremely impressed.

Niko commented: “That girl is a total ninja.”
