After getting cut from the FGCU basketball team tryouts two consecutive years, Jordan Brown decided to trade the ball for nunchucks. He then decided he would become a ninja.
Brown, a senior majoring in criminal justice, is training to compete on NBC’s “American Ninja Warrior.”
“I was thinking, ‘God what do you want me to do with my life?’ ‘How can I be able to inspire people?’” Brown said.
Brown has come a long way since he bought his first pair of nunchucks on eBay last spring. He bought a variety of weapons and started using them to jump and exercise.
