Chinese Beauty Contestants made to catwalk 2,000 metres above the ground

A group of beauty pageant contestants were made to put aside their fear of heights as they paraded on a narrow,glass covered mountain footpath in red bikinis and black high heels in a 'test of their composure'.

The challenge was part of the central China stage of the annual Miss Bikini of the Universe contest, which has been running since 2005, according to the People's Daily Online.
Contestant, Yang Ningqing said

'First of all, it allowed us to become more courageous, and second it allowed us to practice our most fundamental skills,'This catwalk, even though it was a very crude catwalk, allowed us to show off our most beautiful posture.'

 Another contestant, Wang Linwei, said:

'I have never done training on a cliff, I'm not going to lie, it is a little scary.'

Some Chinese social media users criticised organisers for making them strut along the side of a mountain.One user wrote:

'Who is it that came up with such a bad idea to torture the beauties? It is so windy on the mountains. Try getting your daughter up on the cliff with bikinis on.'

The girls were competing to get to the national final in Beijing
