PETALING JAYA: Island tour guide Muhammad Aswat Azdha Idris has become a viral sensation on TikTok with his live sessions featuring the unique spectacle of sea snail racing.

The excitement began last week when he was sitting with his mother at a shop, and a man approached them, offering snails for sale. Little did they know, these snails would soon become the stars of a widespread online trend.
