Of course, cynics may say he isn't really running on water but on floating planks. Two hundred floating plywood planks to be precise. However, how many of us can command that level of speed, precision and balance?
Not much is known about the monk. According to a report in The Telegraph UK, running on water is a part of the monk's training at the Shaolin temple he is a part of. Clearly China's monks are a little bit like superheroes.
