What would you do if you found yourself feeling fed up with life?
Go on vacation? Quit your job?
For one man in China, he decided to be a parking barrier.
A recent viral video shows a man with something fashioned to look like a parking barrier attached to his head.
In the 16-second clip, he is standing in a parking lot and would bend down to block cars from entering before standing up again to let them pass.
According the video’s caption, the man decided to become a human parking barrier as a way of expressing his frustration with life. We don’t get the connection but maybe life, like a parking barrier, has many ups and downs?
As of press time, the man’s identity remains a mystery.
The video has since sparked widespread discussion in China on mental health and the pressures of modern life.
We wonder if any Singaporean would think of becoming an ERP gantry the next time they feel too stressed?
