"Wheel" kung fu


The above picture, from metro.co.uk shows what they describe as a Chinese "kung fu enthusiast" doing cartwheels for 3.5km straight (approximately 2.15 miles) through the streets of Changsha.

To me, a term like "martial arts enthusiast", or "kung fu enthusiast" is dangerously close to describing a full-blown nutcase or registered Martial Arts Maniac. But then again - what do I know...

Any who, I think it's summed up rather precisely by Metro: "(...) the 47-year-old who didn't stop or stand up during the whole event - although the reason for his hour of head-spinning is not yet known."
