Kung fu master Ho En Hu does not need to take up arms in order to defeat the enemy - a Chinese man can pierce a human skull with his index finger like a coconut. Of course, Huo En Hu uses his dangerous talent exclusively for peaceful purposes: “This finger allows me to feed my family,” says the man.
The government of Malaysia in 2000 allocated a special place for the master on Yonker Street, in the heart of Chinatown in the capital of the Malaysian state of Malaysia, since then Ho has been organizing demonstrations twice a week, entertaining locals and tourists.
For many years, Huo En Hu has been setting records and breaking them himself, both literally and figuratively - for example, on February 2, 2001, a Chinese man entered the Malaysian Book of Records, piercing his miracle in a minute and ten seconds. finger three coconuts, and in June 2009 he managed to improve the result - in a little more than 30 seconds, four coconuts became the "victims" of the master, but the master did not stop there and in 2011 he was able to "deal" with those the same four "opponents" in 12 seconds.
The man began his amazing career, inspired by the example of his mentor Chu Kong Leong, who taught the 17-year-old Ho the art of kung fu. “Chu told me to learn how to hit with one finger. It didn't work out very well at first, but hard training did the trick,”Ho recalls. The youth practiced on banana trees, pointing his finger at them whenever he passed.
“Passers-by said that I had lost my mind,” the master laughs. After stuffing his hand on the palms, Ho moved on to other solid objects, and after two years of grueling exercise, he was finally able to pierce his first coconut.
The master's secret lies in the ancient Chinese art of qigong, which teaches how to achieve harmony between body, spirit and mind. While practicing qigong, mentor Huo master Chu Kong Leong learned, for example, to swallow metal balls and push them back, or say, to crack coconuts with his head. Of course, punching coconuts with a finger is not the easiest job in the world, so Huo En Hu has to keep himself in shape - apart from ordinary exercises, a man walks about 20 km every day.

There is practically no fatty food and meat in Ho's diet - the Chinese prefers to lean on vegetables and fish. In addition to the demonstrative punching of coconuts, the man makes his living by selling healing and pain-relieving oils that he prepares himself. Probably, the master knows a lot about medicine - during his career, he broke his famous finger more than once, but invariably went out again to "fight" with coconuts.
