The footage spread widely after it was posted on Weibo, drawing millions of views.
The incident took place at a nursing home in Yantai, Shandong province, where the elderly woman was living.

Staff later found the woman in the vicinity of the home and returned her safely.
The director of the facility told reporters she suffers from severe Alzheimer’s disease, which may have influenced her actions.
Despite concerns about her health and safety, many internet users expressed amazement at her physical ability.
One commenter wrote that her “fitness level” seemed stronger than that of younger people, while another joked they couldn’t climb such a gate at age 29.
