After all, wanting to get rid of our ex’s shoes is something we can all probably relate to.

While most users found the hilarity in the situation, others were more alarmed by its potentially dangerous implications.
One user pointed out that the shoes were considered high-rise litter. If anyone had been passing by below, she could have seriously injured them.

Indeed, her actions may seem humorous at first glance — but it is difficult to ignore that there could have been severe consequences if more passers-by were nearby.
According to the National Environment Agency (NEA), first-time offenders guilty of littering must pay a fine of up to S$2,000.
A second conviction will have them serving a S$4,000 fine, and S$10,000 for the third and subsequent ones.
