Black-cloaked figure stops traffic to perform bizarre antics

It seemed like a usual drizzly day on an urban village of eastern Europe for this driver, until an unusual sight forced the vehicle to detour off course.

Dash cam footage shows a car travelling near Minsk, in Belarus, as it rounds a slight corner to see a black shape visible in the distance.

As the windscreen wipers clear the front window, a man wearing a black raincoat can be seen in the middle of the road with his arms spread out.


The driver slows down ahead of the man, who appears to have a rolled up newspaper in one hand.

In a bizarre turn of events, the man mimes a "one moment please" sign with his hand before lowering himself down to the wet road.

He then spreads his legs wide and does the splits, then pushes his body up and down with his hands while still in split position.

Unimpressed, the driver reverses a little and veers the car around the man who is still open-legged on the road.

The caption accompanying the video posted to YouTube speculated the man may have been drunk.
