'Classy Ninja' takes on 'American Ninja Warrior' course in a three-piece suit

On the 'American Ninja Warrior' Semi-Finals Monday night, 33-year-old Donovan Metoyer, also known as the "Classy Ninja," due to the fact that he always runs the course in a three-piece suit, had 'ANW' viewers in awe as he pulled off a surprising and incredible move halfway through the course. Metoyer stated, "I am known as the Classy Ninja. I'm into classy shirts, classy suits, gotta have the classy shoes. And my hair? It's in a class of its own." "On the course I try to bring a little style, a little elegance and a whole lot of skill," added Metoyer, who flew right through "Off The Hook," "Clockwork" and "Burn Rubber." However, it was at the "Warped Wall," when the Classy Ninja pulled off an epic 360 degree spin while reaching the ledge. Viewers were in disbelief over how baller the move was. In fact, one of the hosts even stated that Metoyer "looked like Michael Jordan," while Twitter shared their amazed reactions. While Donovan, unfortunately, did not make it to the buzzer at the end of the course, as he fell short during the "Dungeon" obstacle, he still finished in eighth place, which means the Classy Ninja is moving on to the finals.
