BIZARRE video shows man taking coronavirus protection to the next level as he does weekly shop in gas mask and knee pads.
The unusual get up was spotted outside a Morrisons supermarket in East Kilbride, South Lanarkshire last Friday morning.
In the video, the a man can be seen emerging from the supermarket covered head to toe in protective clothing.
He sports a blue boiler suit, full gas mask and most bizarrely – knee pads across each leg.
As the clip runs on, he can be seen pushing a shopping trolley filled with beer across the busy car park.
The hilarious scene was caught on camera by 27-year-old Gordon Goshy, who subsequently uploaded the video onto Twitter.
Gordon captioned his post: “Guy up at Morrisons in East Kilbride. Folk are mental.”
