Ace of blades! Eleven-year-old slices through fruit and wooden planks by throwing PLAYING CARDS at them

An 11-year-old from China has shocked viewers with his impressive ability to slice fruit with playing cards.

Wang Kai, from Zhengzhou City in eastern China began practicing the trick after seeing the film From Vegas to Macau.

In the video Wang can be seen carving into a melon, launching cards with laser precision into the fruit.

Amazingly, each card finds its mark and beds itself deep into the skin of the melon causing cracks to appear.

As the footage continues Wang can be seen showcasing his unbeleivable speed as well as needle-point aim.

As his father launches fruit into the air, Wang tracks the object before throwing a card dead on target, leaving each one peppered with hearts, diamonds, clubs and spades.

Most impressive of all though is when Wang is given a plank of wood to practice on, rather than firing at the large face of the plank, Wang turns it on its side, firing the deck into the wood almost half a centimeter each time.

The film that inspired Wang to begin practicing, From Vegas to Macau is a Hong Kong-Chinese crime comedy film.

The film was popular enough to have a sequel, with the original grossing around 33.5million dollars at the Hong Kong box office.
