Super Size This: Health Crazes

Back to the topic of everything in extreme due to a repressed past, this post is about health crazes. Beijingers seem to be obsessed with the idea of living forever, so they'll try anything that promotes heart health. The latest craze is doing acupressure exercises on hands that supposedly help exercise the heart and other vital organs. In this video, my grandpa demonstrates a heart-strengthening exercise. Don't be alarmed if you find people doing this or clapping their hands while walking down the street. They're not crazy, they just want to live above 100.
