Taiwanese pancake chef can flip faster than an eyeblink

Thatā€™s definitely not Japanese. Sounds more like Taiwanese or Mandarin.

Japanese, you say? But look at the title of the original post! Weā€™ve always been at war with EastAsia.

Heā€™d be even faster if he alternated left-to-right with right-to-left.

Bah, thatā€™s nothingā€¦ Check out this epic Paratha tosser: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e-r7z6JFwbk

They are speaking Mandarin with a Taiwanese accent. This is at a night market in Taiwanā€¦NOT China (big difference).

Looks sped up after the first toss, the creases in his sweater seem to move too quickly?

Who cares about all those mini pancakesā€¦ check out the HUGE one at the 1:50 mark. Now THAT is impressive.

We had these guys out for some events. Their machine can pour 4 cakes at once, and their flippers are fast. Previous world record holder according to their site.

donā€™t be ridiculous. itā€™s not even that fast; i know a few home cooks who achieve about 80% of that speed just from hobby cooking. iā€™m more impressed by his diligence and patience to repeat the same movement so smoothly.

This is sarcasm, right?

The most interesting thing, IMO, is that heā€™s making Doraemonā€™s favorite snack. Notice the couple of Doraemon plush dolls towards the end of the video. Iā€™ve only seen these pancake sold in pre-packaged, preservative full versions in supermarkets. Iā€™ve never had one made fresh before. Wonder what he uses for the fillings? Red bean paste or cream?
