  • After smashing through bricks by balancing them on the edge of a pile, the man piles up two and puts them atop a third and breaks them again

This is the incredible moment a Russian man breaks building bricks in half – with just his hands.

Wrapped up for the winter, the man stands beside a pile of red clay bricks in Rostov-on-Don in southern Russia.

Wearing a red jacket, bobble hat, mittens and a tracksuit, the burly man takes swipe at the bricks one-by-one. 

The clip, which has gone viral in Russia, begins with the strong man blessing himself with a cross, before laying bricks out and swiftly cutting them in two.

Showing almost no strain, the bearded man breaks them individually in a very swift motion.

After smashing through bricks by balancing them on the edge of a pile, the man piles up two and puts them atop a third and breaks them again.

Another added: ‘Well, those are s***ty bricks’.

While a third said: ‘Bet he’s popular at building sites!’
