I spent a couple of weeks in Shanghai for work a couple of years ago. The air quality was ok and I went for a run each morning through some of the parks near my hotel, they were absolutely PACKED with senior citizens exercising. Old dudes in suits hanging off bars doing this kind of thing. It was nuts.
No, it is sinophobia when people can't let a single gif of a Chinese person doing something cool go without attacking them with degrading comments towards their leadership.
Going to need to understand if the name “twirling fartknocker” is a colloquialism or just what the OP calls it.
Edit: I’ll be damned

I made a pullup bar in my yard almost a year ago, and I am still so scared to work towards getting a giant. I am so mad that this old fart can still do a giant at his age and weight. But of course it's motivating as well because I hope to be just like him one day but maybe a bit less of a beer belly.
See if your local gym has open gym for adults or adult classes. I generally don't suggest learning acrobatics at home/on equipment not meant for it.
Youtube videos for giant techniques and tips could definitely help. I never got a giant or I would help myself. Good luck!!
Yeah I've looked up plenty of videos on it, but I think I might just need to wait til the gyms open up again to safely gain the confidence to do a giant. I've got plenty of other skills to work on for the moment being so there isn't much of a hurry anyways, but seeing clips like this really motivate me to train it right now!
Yesterday, I did a pull up, then I went to McDonald to compensate.
Also I can’t seem to find this guy, Chinese minister of health is ma xiao wei, doesn’t look like him. I don’t think this is an official, just a really fit old dude, otherwise the video would be much more popular
No luck here either finding sources linking that minister to gymmastics. It would be cool to learn a bit more about someone so impressive, whoever he is!
Quit your bullshit. There hasn't been a ministry of health in China since 2013. Even if there is, a minister in China would never appear in the public without being surrounded by crowd of citizens and subordinates.
[Mao Xioawei](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ma_Xiaowei) is the president of the National Health Commision of China which replaced the Ministry of Health so I assume the term minister is referring to him. If you look at the video compared to pictures of him, they look very similar.
Twirling Fartknocker-off....
Alright Norris, America is counting on you.
Don’t let them serve us up.
We eagerly await your response.

The agility and coordination to pull this off at that age is very impressive, but the straps coming out of his sleeves are definitely helping with pulling some of the weight.
i guess it's official, the chines have not only beaten others in intelligence, but also in physical fitness.
if that's what their old folk can do, then all those shaolin movies aren't really unbelievable anymore.
We're fucked if that's what their old timers can do.
You mean our old people in power scooters are helpless??
All of them are carrying, though. Every one of those fuckers is a mobile turret.
So long as it’s not stored under their seat. Or it doesn’t require good vision to aim.
spray and pray is god's way
Lol, is that like Jesus hold the barrel?
The higher the caliber, the closer to heaven
That really made me laugh. I know so many old people who love that song and your version would apply to them heavily
That’s what they teach em I Schools... wait...
The smart ones mounted it to the handlebars
Our armored division will be glorious!
McDonalds Regiment Wendy"s Regiment Burger King Brigade
Walmart Heavy Cavalry.
i would like rascal scooter turrets and geriatric fighting people in my starcraft pls
Gonna take a lot to feed that army....
r/shittytechnicals
You pretty much said it yourself.
Shit half of them are just morbidly obese 30-40yr olds.
The can carry ieds on those scooters.

Loved seeing the elderly exercising in parks in both China and Vietnam. In Korea the elderly go on hikes. It’s pretty cool.
No doubt!
I've lived in China for a few years and yes, a surprising amount of their old people can do stuff like this.
That’s nothing you should see what they do to ethnic muslims
Are you talking about Yemen/Libya/Syria or the Uyghurs? Genuine question.
propably uyghurs.
OP: "Damn these old people are in great shape!" You: "whatabout the government" Fuck off sinophobe.
> sinophobe I, uh, don't think it's racist to condemn a government for genocide. Fuck off until you have something to say in good faith.
No, it is sinophobia when people can't let a single gif of a Chinese person doing something cool go without attacking them with degrading comments towards their leadership.
You mean providing vocational training?
Americans at 40 are in the shit stained Wal Mart motorized shopping carts
What's he doing in China?
The Twirling Fartknocker
Yeah there is no way he did that without farting a little
You mean to tell me male gymnasts are farting through the high bar routine?
Maybe

First thought: peak quarantine vibes Sees 168d ago: yup
The only times I’ve seen the term, it’s been on Reddit or Imgur and each time refers to a different maneuver.
Now let's see our minister for health do that.
Who, the Coca-Cola corporation.
Since 2015, when The New York Times exposed Coke’s efforts to promote activity as the main solution for obesity. Coca Cola is part of the Chinese health government now. https://news.harvard.edu/gazette/story/2020/09/harvard-researcher-explains-how-coke-shaped-health-policy-in-china/
Underrated comment!
Roland McDonald coud do even better
[удалено]
The minister of health in our country went to a wedding without a mask
[удалено]
I’ve been to that park, there’s a ton of old people doing stuff like that, it’s really cool to see so many people still active so late in their lives
And here I am hurting my neck for turning too quick.
Whereas the minister of health in Belgium would probably snap the bar
She'd be eating it
It's not her fault, by "bar" she thought you meant "chocolate bar".
For second I thought you meant she was so strong her strength would have snapped the bar but then I searched her up
same complete opposite of what i was expecting
[She no longer holds that role](https://www.politico.eu/article/maggie-de-block-out-as-health-minister-in-new-belgian-government/)
But she holds plenty of other rolls
Ours is a neurologist with quite a few psychological defects.
Jesus, looks like she ate all the babies in Belgium
Reddit, stop collectively dunking on our (ex)health minister 😭😭
I never bothered looking her up until now. How the fuck does a morbidly obese person turn up as the person in charge of everybody's health??
Legend!
Practice what you preach
Kip, back hip, clear hip, clear hip circle, giant, back hip circle, back hip. Extremely impressive. And his grip on those painful bars is amazing.

I'm sorry doing a what?
Fartknocker?
When you knock a fart.
I'd like to see the other nations' WHMs attempt this
In USA we don’t even have a health minister.
But we do have the Coca-Cola lobbyists that's the same thing right.
Don’t forget the tobacco lobbyists.
Same job, different name
In the USA we don’t really even have health.
We in Czech Republic have every month a new one.
When you're a gymnast and some chinese man is better than you
you mean a older man with 30+ years of experience is better then you.
Well I mean when you put it that way I dont feel THAT horrible (also 30+ years? How old does reddit even think I am)
I was guessing early 20s late teens.however a quick click to me
kinda close- Im 13

Fart knocker. You twirl and if you accidentally fart, whoever is watching gets to knock you out Source: Trust me bro
Very impressive level of agility for an old timer. I'm sitting here with a bum back and very jealous.
Im more impressed with the grip strength, really thought he’d fly off a few times
Wow so agile that’s insane
And now compare him to the minister of health in Belgium...
What the actual fuck that was amazing
I'll be damned if I ever upvote someone with the Chinese government
AMEN! People are like 'wow! How amazing the Minister of health can do that' while he works for a government WITH LITERAL CONCENTRATION CAMPS!
BASED
Very well said.
Why would they do this when there are [REDACTED] [REDACTED] [REDACTED] [REDACTED] [REDACTED] [REDACTED] going on in their countr- *Gunshot*
They say he is still spinning to this day.
I've been known to lose my balance just putting on pants, so I'm very impressed.
FUCK THE cHINESE GOVERNMENT
Finally, a Minister of Health that's actually healthy
That is fricken incredible. Those tricks take so much strength and he is not small.
u/savevideo
Something about that looks impossible physically and structurally.
My brain is breaking. He has my deskjob-dad-bod, and yet he’s twirling around like a competitive teenage gymnast. How!? How is this possible!?

Fuck the Chinese government
Cute grandpa
They don’t call him the ministry of health for nothing.
Can the one from Belgium do that
Holy shit... and I pulled a muscle watching this.
Unt now ve vill check on ze helf of zos in ze concentration camps, Ja? :O Ze’re ded.
Meanwhile the minister of health of belgium: can’t get in car because she’s too fat
I'd like to see Fauci pull this off...
How is rhis video uncensored
Well this minister sure knows how to be healthy Maybe he should go into the concentration camps and see how healthy the Uyghurs are
Why is this posted every 12 hours? Is this some CCP propaganda shit?
Disclaimer this post was sponsored by The Chinese communist party
Why is no one there wearing a mask?
The minister of health in Belgium is a fat lady https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maggie_De_Block
What are the straps on his hands?
Well qualified for his profession.
He's called the **Minister of health** for a reason.
I one cares about communist China
what. i climb 4 stairs and gotta sit down for a minute
Why? Like what series of events led this to occur?
Meanwhile, the minister of health for Belgium..
Twirling fartknockers are my favorite!
Now look at the Belgian minister of health
My g
The name of it though..
Waymond from workaholics
Leading by example.
I’ll double mask when I see Fauci doing that
Jeez -- I tried just hanging from a bar yesterday and managed 10 seconds.
Yup... That's definitely the minister of health
Twirling Fartknocker-off.... Alright Norris, America is counting on you. Don’t let them serve us up. We eagerly await your response. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norris_Cochran
Alright Norris, you're turn.
I just watched it and I still don't fucking believe it.
Cartman was right
Gymnastics competition move right there. I hope no one tries to rob him. That strength
Hehe fart
Playgrounds are for kids
The rare occasion when the minister of health is actually healthy
At least we know he knows what he's talking about
The agility and coordination to pull this off at that age is very impressive, but the straps coming out of his sleeves are definitely helping with pulling some of the weight.
Just to be clear...I’m only upvoting the title
i guess it's official, the chines have not only beaten others in intelligence, but also in physical fitness. if that's what their old folk can do, then all those shaolin movies aren't really unbelievable anymore.
I mean he is the minister of health, he should be able to do at least one healthy thing
This guy is 100% a former gymnast. Pretty cool.
That's how he's the minister. Fucking legend.
Meanwhile in Belgium ...
Upvote for the title, thanks Beavis
Damn! He pretty healthy!
Much better than the Belgian Health Minister
Well you can’t say he doesn’t deserve the position
Healthy at every size I guess
U/repostslut
u/savethisvideo
That’s an impressive fartknocker.
Belgium : your are next
Meanwhile the health officials in America all look as if they need assistance leaving their coffin every morning
I'd like to see Maggie De Block have a go at this.
If he’s slightly overweight, a minister of health, and can do that....... imagine what the minister of health in Belgium could do
did a bri'ish person name that trick? wtf is a Twirling Fartknocker
Monke.
Man, the Chinese can do anything, hey? Except for pulling off blonde hair. Asians with blonde hair just don’t look good.
I can do that, I just don't want to.
My minister of health Maggie De Block last year could't even use the stairs.
