The leader of Turkmenistan has shot targets from a moving bicycle in his latest eccentric, self-aggrandising video, Telegraph reports.
Mr Berdimukhamedov, who has “achieved high results” in target shooting since childhood, also fired several weapons himself, the publication said.
In footage mocked by social media users, Mr Berdimukhamedov, dressed in dun-coloured camouflage, left the training grounds on a mountain bike and passed by three specially prepared targets in the shape of a human silhouette.
Carefully riding within a few metres of the targets, he drew a pistol and put a round into the centre of each one, video from the event showed. A group of service personnel was on hand to enthusiastically applaud the feet.
“Directly hitting the targets, the Turkmen leader again demonstrated his physical fitness and mastery, setting an ideal example for soldiers and the youth in particular,” Golden Century wrote.
