A Chinese video blogger has found himself in a tough spot after he posted videos in which he is seen approaching women and pretending to be a street magician so that he can fondle their breasts.
On his microblogging network Sina Weibo, which has more than 400,000 followers, the man describes himself as an 'online prankster'.
The BBC reported that he has been posting videos since March in which he is shown stopping women in the street asking them inappropriate questions like '"Do you use tampons?" and "Could I have a one night stand with you?" and then films their reactions.
