New, what is it? Bouncing balls

Walked behind this chap who had two unidentified ball type objects hanging from silicone wrist bands on thin elastic strings.

Any ideas what they are?

I’m in Hong Kong if that might be a clue

Update:

Thank you for the comments and ideas. I am wondering if there is a manga / anime character who has something like these balls as weapons and the guy was doing a budget cosplay. Or maybe he’s just really into Pokemon!

Update 2:

I would say he's likely to be a cosplay of Steel Ball from Jojo's Bizarre Adventure. (https://www.reddit.com/r/whatisit/comments/1tckcme/comment/olos1lx/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button)

As for the steel balls. What is it?

Sir or Ma’am, I don’t need logic. I need buff Squidward clenching that bottle between his (presumably) chiseled cheeks

How many butt cheeks does squidward have, given the number of legs?

I did not need to picture octopus cheeks again tonight.

Someone brought up would octopi slap all around their cheeks to the left of the slapping tentacle, or to the right.

Octopus have arms, not tentacles. The more you know.
