Next, the former Alibaba CEO tries modeling clothes in front of a camera.
For the third round, Ma took a shot at being an online personality that demonstrates cosmetic products.
The Chinese investor continues to push his luck in other endeavors. In the fourth round, he tries to successfully tie up hairy crabs.
Ma struggled as he tried to bind the crabs. Unfortunately, he only managed to finish three crabs compared to the 16 crabs from his opponent.
Ma took on delivery duties for the final round.
Ma is certainly familiar with these types of stunts. He once came out on stage dressed in a bedazzling costume and danced to Michael Jackson’s “Billie Jean.”
Ma also took a shot at being a martial artist and a singer, making his debut alongside Chinese singer Faye Wong.
