This young man’s real name is Jyotiraj. But people call him Kotiraja (Monkeyman).
This is because of his amazing ability of rock-climbing which he does with the agility of a monkey. He works as a mason in Chitradurga, the well-known historic town of Karnataka.
He prefers to climb with his bare hands as he feels using a safety rope is not being brave enough.
The daring young man’s ambition is to create a Guinness record. During our recent visit there, friend Rohit S Rao captured the action blow by blow.
