The martial arts expert behind last year's 'bottle cap challenge' has showcased his astonishingly precise moves in a new video.
Taekwondo instructor Farabi Davletchin's tricks include slicing fruit and snuffing out candle flames with a kicked disc from his home in Almaty, Kazakhstan.
He has practised Taekwondo for 20 years and posts videos of his amazing tricks on his Instagram.

In the first clip of the video, Davletchin can be seen snuffing out the flame of a match with his foot in a precise kick.
In other clips, he places a water bottle upside down and removes the block underneath it, barely spilling any as it lands perfectly upright with the water still inside.
In another, a cut out piece of the coconut is balanced on top of it, which he carefully and precisely kicks so it flips upside down.
He places a Mento on top of a thin piece of card on top of a bottle of Coca Cola and kicks the piece of card so the Mento falls in the Coca Cola, causing a reaction and the drink foaming over the sides of the bottle.

He kicks a disc from one wooden pole towards a strawberry on another. It hits the strawberry and changes direction, flying towards the camera

Outside, he uses a sword to chop a piece of fruit balanced in the top of a water bottle in half
Davletchin puts a disc between two glass bottles full of drink in an hourglass shape.
When he kicks the disc, it snuffs out a candle and causes the bottles to fall on top of each other, the liquid from the top leaking into the bottom.
Davletchin started the Bottle Cap Challenge on June 25 last year. The participant removed a loose bottle lid by using a roundhouse marital arts kick.
It caught on with celebrities including actor Jason Statham and musician John Mayer getting involved as well as Irish Ultimate Fighting Championship fighter Conor McGregor.
