A woman from Fujian, China, is being hailed as a wushu master after a video of her showing off her nunchuck skills went viral.

Identified only by her surname, Lei is so agile with a pair of nunchucks that she can put out candles, slice a cucumber and light a single match with them.

At one point, she even knocks an orange off her friend's head with nunchucks while blindfolded.

According to CCTV News, Lei teaches nunchuck lessons to the women in her village. These women make wielding weapons look so easy.

You won't want to mess with these Bruce Lee reincarnates.
