Hebei Pangzai becomes famous for his unbelievable tornado drinking trick.
A man from China has been crowned the “king of the internet” for his impressive tornado drinking technique.
Hebei Pangzai, whose real name is Liu Shichao, found viral fame by creating a unique way to drink beer.
How Pangzai performs the trick
Pangzai opens several bottles of beer and swirls the liquid in a circular motion.
This creates a “tornado” effect in the glass. He then drinks the entire bottle in one go before repeating the process with another bottle.
The video quickly went viral and sparked debate on social media
Though impressive, the technique may cause inevitable hiccups from consuming so much fizzy liquid.
Despite this, Pangzai embraced his newfound fame, turning his wild drinking style into a social media persona.
Pangzai declared himself the “inventor of tornado beer drinking” and began sharing videos on his X (formerly Twitter) account.
His clips quickly gained traction, attracting over 153,000 followers. Fans were particularly drawn to his videos where he drinks multiple beers at once.
Tornado drinking videos take over: four beers in one go
One of his most popular videos from 2020 shows him downing four beers at once, using the top of an empty bottle as a funnel.
Viewers were impressed, with comments like, “Born leader” and “Stay fly king.”
One person said: Frat guys: Bet you can’t shotgun this beer in less than 5 seconds. Pangzai: hold my brick.
A second wrote: Incredible technique. I’ve never seen beer drank so masterfully.
While a third commented: The crazy thing is it doesn’t look like he’s hitting those bottles that hard
Someone else said: the tornado style is to make the water go down faster
Another added: He should be in that slapping competition. He would slap the atoms out of them….lol
After gaining viral fame, Pangzai diversified his content. He now posts updates about his life in Hubei, China, and shares cooking videos. However, his tornado drinking clips remain the most popular among his followers.
Pangzai reflects on his fame and health
In 2023, Pangzai spoke about his viral success, revealing that he perfected the technique on Chinese platform Kuaishou before his videos went viral on Twitter.
Despite concerns over his health, Pangzai assured fans that his drinking hasn’t harmed him. He clarified that he isn’t addicted to alcohol and doesn’t drink alone.
