If you're a fan of the Fast And Furious franchise, you would definitely be familiar with the film's protagonist Dominic Toretto – played by renowned American actor Vin Diesel.

A man bearing an uncanny resemblance to Diesel recently became the talk of the town after being spotted selling food at a Ramadan bazaar in Bandar Baru Uda, Johor Bahru.

In a TikTok video posted by @flamjars on Monday (April 3), the lookalike – casually dressed in a white tee and blue denim jeans – can be seen flipping a kunafa (a popular Middle Eastern dessert) while taking orders from @flamjars and his friend.

In the 14-second clip, @flamjars and his friend were unable to hold their laughter and excitement at seeing someone so similar to the Hollywood star.

"Bro (is) selling kunafa for (his) family," he wrote in the caption.

The video has since gone viral on TikTok with over 3.1 million views, 405,600 likes and 15,000 shares at the time of writing.

In the comments section, many netizens expressed their amusement and left many humorous replies.

"Even Dom Toretto is affected by the high costs of living. I feel so bad that he has to sell kunafa now," @akmalkhalish_ said.

"Fasting and furious," @naliashaa joked under the post.

"Nothing stronger than kunafa," wrote @amirrscott in reference to Toretto's famous line, "There's nothing stronger than family."

In the Fast franchise, Diesel's character Dom often talks about the importance of family.

In February, a Twitter user posted photos of a Diesel lookalike selling grilled fish by the road, standing outside a bookshop and pumping petrol at where appears to be Johor Bahru.

It is unclear if the lookalike in the photos is the same person at the Ramadan bazaar.
