A Chinese man has lifted a 75kg barbell for 10 seconds - with his penis.

Zhan, from Harbin city, Helongjiang province, said the skill is a branch of Kung Fu, which is exclusive to his family.

Zhan, 55, says his father taught him the skill to help him get fit after a serious illness when he was 18.

He started training by lifting small bricks with his penis, then gradually added weights and extended duration, reports Yangtsi Evening Post.

Zhan, a director of the Hong Kong Chinese Culture Development Fund, said he had no interest in applying to the Guinness Book of Records.
