A slapping contest in which men try to inflict as much pain against each other with a single slap to the face is making a huge noise – literally – in the latest “bizarre” sport/curiosity that’s turning heads, especially on YouTube.

And millions of slapping devotees have been turning their attention to the sport’s first superstar; someone you wouldn’t want to face in competition, no pun intended.

Russian bear Vasiliy Kamotskiy is a mammoth of a man, who has slapped his way to superstardom and just a few days ago took it a notch further when he claimed another victim, this time against Kirill “Bazooka Arms” Tereshin, a so-called bodybuilder with synthol-filled biceps.

Tereshin thought he could take on the big Russian, dubbed “Dumpling” (he likes to eat them, we are told) but he was seriously mistaken, as the latest face-slapping video on YouTube shows.

Komotskiy, who weighs more than 168 kgs (370lbs), proved no match for Pyatigorsk native Tereshin, who made headlines with his “foot-long” biceps that have dramatically been increased in size as a result of dozens of synthol drug injections.
