Want a Khal’s body? Go topless climbing

-

GAME Of Thrones hunk Jason Momoa has been keeping in shape while filming his next movie in London by using a climbing wall – topless, of course.

The 37-year-old actor, who played Dothraki ruler Khal Drogo, doomed lover of Emilia Clarke’s Daenerys Targaryen, both right, has been spotted scaling walls at a popular climbing gym.

One onlooker said of the 6ft 3in Hawaiian star, who is rumoured to be making a return to the next series of the hit show: ‘He is huge and muscly, twice the size of a normal person, which is quite unusual for climbers who need to be light and agile to hold themselves on the walls.

‘But he’s incredibly good and seems to dance up the steepest routes. He also does a lot of extremely loud power-grunting.’

Momoa, who is staying in London while working on the forthcomin­g DC Comics action film Justice League, seems to be taking the attention in his stride.

‘Obviously, the girls all want to get selfies with him,’ added the source. ‘He usually says yes but had to politely decline when someone tried to get a picture with him while he was hanging on for dear life on a particular­ly difficult route.’

Indoor climbing recently got a boost after it was announced that the sport would feature for the first time in the Tokyo Olympics in 2020.
