Observant netizens debunk eerie video footage of trash bins moving by themselves
A video of two trash bins seemingly moving on their own in Woodlands has spooked some netizens. However, not everyone was convinced, as some observant netizens suspected Artificial Intelligence (AI) was at work.
Trash bins appear to move by themselves
In a clip uploaded to TikTok on 1 Mar, @natureworldscenes shared footage allegedly taken during a night-time jog along Woodlands Street 82.
The short video began by showing a green trash bin beside an orange one positioned along a pavement.

At first, everything seemed normal. However, just seconds later, the orange bin suddenly slid across the pavement to the grass patch opposite without anyone touching it.
As if that wasn’t shocking enough, the green trash bin then did the same and came to a stop beside the orange one.
