Jump Shot Brother, from Fushun, Liaoning province, northeastern China, is a street vendor and now has nearly 8 million followers across the internet.
His profile says: “Specialised in various kinds of food made from flour and popular all over China, such as oil-less pancakes, scallion pancakes, and crispy sauce-flavoured pancakes.”
His account features a series of videos where he skillfully takes out the freshly prepared cooked pancakes then spins and cuts them adeptly.
Then, instead of bagging the pancake in a normal way, he tosses it accurately into a small plastic bag, resembling doing a basketball jump shot, all while casually chatting with customers at his stall.
