Devotees removed the cover after they heard knocks from inside the wok. They quickly removed it find him lying unconscious inside. Footage of him convulsing while people try to get him away from the heat was widely shared on social media. Lim Ba who is also known as Black Dog had been steaming himself for 10 years.

By the time the ambulance arrived the self-professed magic man had stopped breathing and was later declared dead. He died from heart failure and massive second-degree burns. Lim Ba’s son Kang Huai said his father had undergone a heart bypass last year and was on medication for hypertension. As per reports, Lim had been performing the stunt for more than 10 years despite objections from family members. According to Star Online, his daughter Wei Ling said that Lim’s longest record for sitting inside the wok was 75 minutes.

Reportedly, Federation of Taoist Associations of Malaysia (FTAM) president Tan Hoe Chioew said the ritual was not a normal Taoist practice. Hoe said that it was more of a theurgy or magic performance. He said, “This ‘steaming man’ ritual is rarely performed, and I dare not comment on what preparations are needed before you perform this. But in general, doing physical endurance stunts is not advisable.”

Arsenal youngster, Eddie Nketiah says it was a ‘childhood dream come true’ to score in his home debut for the Gunners in the Carabao Cup on Tuesday night.

Nketiah scored twice as Arsenal came from behind to beat Norwich City 2-1 at the Emirates to progress to the last eight. The 18-year-old said afterwards that he had dreamt of scoring the winner for Arsenal from a very young age.

“I’m delighted first of all to make my home debut and to get on a score two goals and win the match for Arsenal FC is a great feeling for me and my family.

“I’m just so happy that I could hear the fans screaming my name and it’s been a childhood dream for me and I just want to keep pushing on and hopefully you’ll see more goals and many better performances from me,” Nketiah said


Arsenal supporters sung the striker’s name as Arsene Wenger’s side saw off Norwich in extra-time. Nketiah said he felt honoured to hear them sing his name but added that he wasn’t going to allow himself to get carried away.

“It made me feel very privileged to be welcomed in by the fans like that and it’s a dream come through as I said.

“I just want to keep impressing the fans and making them happy because they mean a lot to this club and they mean a lot to me so hopefully I can keep pushing forward,” Nketiah said.

Arsenal coach, Arsene Wenger who was also impressed with the lad had this to say:

“I can’t remember a young player having such an impact in a game like that. Until he came on we lacked ideas and creativity.


“I knew he had quality, but when the team need you and you deliver, that’s another quality you don’t know about until you go on to the pitch.

“I’m impressed to think that he was not even conceived when I was already here! But it’s good as well because life gives chances to young people. Hopefully he’ll have a long career at Arsenal,”
