Nursery School Worker Becomes Viral Sensation With Incredible Trick Shots Through Impossibly Small Spaces

This is the moment a German nursery school worker performs incredible trick shots by throwing playing cards through impossibly small slits garnering 1.6 million TikTok followers and 30 million likes.

Michael Wlotzka, 39, told Newsflash that he started doing trick shots in March last year after returning from holiday just as Germany was entering COVID-19 lockdown.

Since then, Michael has gained most of his following on TikTok but also boasts of 117,000 Instagram followers for his mind-bending trick shots.

The videos show some of the many challenges that Michael has completed and posted on social networks.

One collection of Michael’s top 10 trick shots shows him throwing playing cards or other objects and managing to land them into impossibly small spaces as a stopwatch shows the time he took to complete the challenges.

Another video shows Michael landing a card in a clothespin after tossing it through a slit that appears to be no larger than a CD case.

A third video shows the German influencer beating his friend at a ‘trick shot’ version of noughts and crosses while a final video shows him landing a ping pong ball through an obstacle course and onto a glue stick.

Michael said he first started setting challenges with footballs, ping pong balls and toilet paper, but once he started to land playing cards in clothespins, it really took off from there, adding different levels of difficulty.

His posts quickly started amassing huge numbers of views after being shared by netizens and news portals, helping to make some of his videos go viral.

He added that some of the videos that were shared or reposted have gained over 20 million views, which he says is a little funny as it was not his goal when he first started posting trick shots.

Michael told Newsflash: “It is really fun for me to think of new ideas that people have never seen before. That’s my motivation.”

When asked about his handle ‘Jayjinho81’, the influencer said it was inspired by former Nigerian footballer Jay-Jay Okocha who played for German clubs Borussia Neunkirchen and Eintracht Frankfurt.

Okocha also spent four years at Bolton Wanderers and one year at Hull City.

Michael, who left his office job 20 years ago to work with children at a kindergarten, said that for now, his plans are to stay in Germany where he lives with his wife and six-year-old daughter.
