One Direction have devised an interesting way to get themselves pumped up before going on stage.
The boys - who are away on their first headline tour of the US until the end of the month - took inspiration from mobile app Fruit Ninja to create a rather dangerous game.
'Don't try this at home,' says Zayn Malik, 19.
'Basically, you throw the fruit in the air and cut it in half.'
Zayn, Louis Tomlinson, 20, plus 18-year-olds Harry Styles, Liam Payne and Niall Horan, will have plenty of time to practice their ninjutsu moves when they embark on a UK arena tour early next year.
The lads' backstage areas are always well-equipped for their hobby.
'Every dressing room we go in,' Liam tells the Daily Record, 'seems to have a chopping board, a knife and a bowl of fruit.'
