It’s not everyday you see a naked man riding a scooter with giant cross. Warning: This article has content some readers might find objectionable. Last month, Kotaku brought word of a Beijing man who ran through the streets nude while carrying a sex

Online in China, the images soon went viral, and one Chinese blogger compared the incident to a real-life Temple Run.(new Image()).src = 'https://capi.connatix.com/tr/si?token=995c4c7d-194f-4077-b0a0-7ad466eb737c&cid=872d12ce-453b-4870-845f-955919887e1b'; cnx.cmd.push(function() { cnx({ playerId: "995c4c7d-194f-4077-b0a0-7ad466eb737c" }).render("79703296e5134c75a2db6e1b64762017"); }); https://kotaku.com/its-like-temple-run-but-with-naked-chinese-people-and-467459025 This month, the same gentleman returned; however, this time he was carrying a huge crucifix. According to Chinese social networking sites, he was once again spotted in Beijing’s Wangjing area, which is known as the city’s Koreatown and which also houses many tech companies.
The Chinese media even reported this latest incident by the “Wingjing Streaker”. Besides the dash, there was also a buck-naked moped ride. Both with a giant crucifix. Last night on social networking site Sina Weibo, a man Li Binyuan admitted that he was the Wingjing Streaker. “I’ve done this about ten times,” Li admitted. “So far, only six times have been recorded and put online by spectators.”
Photos of the Wangjing Streaker started to go viral in China last month. Li, a graduate of the prestigious China Central Academy of Fine Arts, works as an artist in China. He’s still young and is still trying to make a name for himself. But this isn’t necessarily an art project per se—though, it certainly does have elements of performance art.
“At first, it all started because I was bored and this seemed fun,” said Li. “Later, it just became something to do.” Li said that he had hit a wall with his work and was frustrated. He
needed a release, and for him, streaking fulfilled that.
“Every time I finish a run, I always check online to see what people online are saying about me,” said Li. “The internet creates such a wonderful way to

For example, in 2010, Li had himself filmed on the subway in China as he brushed his teeth, washed his face, and then lathered up to shave his face with a razor. He even brought a bottle of water, a cup, and a bowl so he could gargle and wash up after he finished. All this occurred on a crowded subway. Onlookers either ignored Li or took digipics.
While there’s probably no law against brushing your teeth or shaving on a train, public nudity is a crime in China. Li doesn’t think what he did was wrong, adding that when people are stressed out, they need to cut loose. A Beijing lawyer named Liu Xiaoyuan is quoted as saying this is illegal, but added that since the incidents occurred at night (and perhaps didn’t disturb the peace), criminal charges are unlikely. After admitting he was the Wangjing Streaker, Li wrote
