There is a similar asana in yoga called Monkey Pose (Hanuman Asana). Why is it called Monkey Style? One of the Hindu myths here says that the monkey god Hanuman crossed the sea directly from the Himalayas to Dharanka in order to save Sita and to commemorate this magical leap is called Hanunman style.

This posture is very demanding for hip flexibility and thigh flexibility, it will strongly stretch the front thigh muscles, iliopsoas, glutes, hamstrings muscles. This requires you to practice gradually to strengthen the stretching ability of these areas. By proper means of doing it, you can do it more easily, but everyone's physical condition is different, you still need to practice according to your own physical condition, don't force it.
