Youths these days love to take a mirror selfie and can’t seem to resist snapping photos of themselves whenever they come across a reflective surface.
While most of us don’t take heed when we see them doing that, an uncle in a wheelchair noticed a group of teens taking a mirror selfie and became intrigued.
TikTok user @dawnnieee_ , or Dawn, who was in that group, later saw the uncle doing exactly what they did, by himself.
Touched by the sight, she recorded the scene and uploaded it to TikTok, with the video garnering over 1.9 million views.
In the video, Dawn shared that her group of friends had found a convex traffic mirror along Emerald Hill in Orchard and decided to take a mirror selfie together.

After Dawn and her friends left, they saw the uncle move over to where they had been standing.
He then discreetly took out his own mobile phone, flashed a shy smile, and snapped a quick picture of his reflection in the convex mirror.
