Man Lies Down On Top Of Frozen Goods In Taiwan Supermarket Freezer
If you’re an active TikTok user, you would know that there has been a fair share of pranks posted on the platform.
Due to the algorithm, creative and hilarious pranks are often easy ways to gain virality.
Recently, a video of a man climbing into a supermarket freezer and lying down in it went viral on Douyin, the Chinese version of TikTok.
Unfortunately, the prank backfired on him as netizens called him out for his inconsiderate behaviour.
The supermarket has also had to replace the affected products and is seeking compensation.

The original video on Douyin apparently included the trending hashtag “我要上推荐”, which loosely translates to, “I want to recommend it”.
Store seeks compensation for damages
According to Mirror Media, the supermarket chain said that they would replace all affected products. They will also not hesitate to seek reimbursement for the damages caused by the group.
In the comments, netizens were critical of the men, calling them out for their selfish behaviour.
While playing pranks in good fun is okay, they have clearly crossed the line, damaging the store’s goods and causing a major inconvenience to others.
Hopefully, the men are remorseful and will cooperate with the supermarket to remedy the situation.
