Paul Dodkin, 53, from Epsom, Surrey, said he was 'disgusted' when he first spotted the man performing the routine last Saturday.
It was just one day after 38 people, a majority of them British, were massacred as they lay on a beach in Sousse, Tunisia.
Mr Dodkin
said he and several other British tourists brought it up with staff
at Domina Coral Bay Hotel in Sharm El Sheik, but to his shock, the same
procedure was repeated less than a week later.
Mr
Dodkin spotted the man running towards him and took the photos on
Friday, just before Britain held a minute's silence to remember those
killed on the beach at Sousse.
Although
the photographs were taken during the employee's second appearance, Mr
Dodkin says that he performed the same routine days earlier, believed to
be made out to look like a James Bond skit.
Mr Dodkin,
who is still in Egypt on holiday with his son, booked through British
agency VeryCheapHolidays, who are investigating the matter.
MailOnline has asked Domina Coral Bay hotel for comment.
Meanwhile,
security has been tightened at Egypt's holiday resorts with extra armed
guards protecting Sharm El Sheikh and Hurghada in the wake of the
massacre in Tunisia.
The
rise of ISIS in Egypt has put the country's holiday resorts - where
900,000 Brits holiday every year - on high alert with armed guards on
patrol around the beach and hotels.
Tourism
earns Egypt £3.7billion a year and Tunisia admitted that last week's
atrocity in Sousse had cost the country at least £330million in
cancelled bookings.
The
Foreign Office has confirmed that 'enhanced security measures are in
place to protect the Sharm el-Sheikh and Hurghada [across the Read Sea]
resort areas'.
Earlier today, a minute's silence was held across Britain to remember the victims of the massacre in Tunisia last week.
The
silence was observed around the country at noon and flags are being
flown at half-mast over Buckingham Palace, the Houses of Parliament and
countless other buildings up and down the UK.
Of
the 38 holidaymakers who were killed by Seifeddine Rezgui when he
opened fire in the resort of Sousse last Friday. 30 were British. Three
Irish nationals, two Germans, one Belgian, one Portuguese and one
Russian were among the dead.
