Jackie Chan has wowed audiences across the globe with his daredevil stunts and martial arts prowess on-screen. Since the 1970s, Jackie Chan has starred in over 150 Hong Kong and Hollywood films combined. From fighting multiple people at once to using everyday things like chairs and ladders, Jackie Chan invented unique ways to film action scenes. In a recent video, an aged man from Africa channeled his inner Jackie Chan in a viral video and sent martial arts fans into a frenzy.

Recently, a TikTok user uploaded a video of a man performing martial arts stunts. However, he wasn’t just showing off his skills. Like the martial arts legend, the elderly man also used an everyday object to help him perform the stunts.?

The viral video astonished TikTok users

In the video, the African man uses two sticks to perform. However, he has modified the sticks by tying pieces of wood to each pole to act as footrests. The man in the video is walking and jumping on the homemade stilts. He shows off his impressive balance as he can walk on stilts while performing various stunts, like hitting a horse stance and throwing side kicks.
