Barber in Indonesia collapses after accepting 80 customers before Hari Raya
A barber in Indonesia collapsed after taking in too many customers on Sunday evening (30 Mar), right before Hari Raya Idul Fitri, or Eid al-Fitr on 31 Mar.
Footage of the incident was posted by @ariezta_bajank on TikTok earlier this week and has since gone viral, with over 6 million views.
Barber suffers asthma attack
The clips show the man slumped on the floor of his barbershop, surrounded by hair clippings.
Seemingly fatigued and struggling to breathe, he had a nebuliser mask covering his nose and mouth.
According to the OP, the barber had an asthma attack following Takbiran, the evening before Eid al-Fitr, after cutting the hair of 80 customers.
It is understood that many Muslims get their haircuts on the eve of Hari Raya so they can look their best during the holiday.
Others also take this opportunity to shop for new clothes or get their vehicles washed.
