This acrobat managed to climb a 6-metre-long bamboo pole that was being held aloft by his friend in eastern China.
Video filmed in the city of Heze in Shandong Province on October 17 shows a 39-year-old man named Wang Fuquan balancing a 6-metre-long bamboo stick on his chest and another man named Li Meng climbing onto the pole to perform acrobatic movements.
According to local reports, Wang and Li started to learn acrobatics when they were 15 years old and 12 years old respectively.
Wang said he has been into acrobatics since he was a child. He added that it is not easy to learn the skill and he always had skin traumas.
Wang hopes to pass on this traditional culture through his own efforts.
