China comedian inspires many despite disabilities; viewers celebrate his optimistic mindset


A young man from southern China, who has endured brain haemorrhages three times that led to his partial paralysis, has transformed his disability into comedy and life inspiration through his short videos, winning the hearts of many internet users.


Yang Tiejun, 26, who lives in Huizhou, Guangdong province, has amassed a total of 600,000 followers on two leading mainland social media platforms, as reported by the South Metropolis News.


Hello, I am your human whisk, human electric toothbrush, and human fascia gun,” Yang often humorously self-mocks in his videos, referring to his physical feature that causes his left arm to shake uncontrollably at a high frequency.
