In Marzahn, a district in Berlin, a man attempted a risky stunt by dropping a washing machine from the fifth floor onto a mattress, aiming for a safe landing. However, the experiment quickly backfired when the heavy appliance missed its target and crashed onto the ground, shattering into pieces while leaving the mattress unscathed.
Viral Video Sparks Online Reactions
A 24-second video of the stunt, posted on social media platform X (formerly Twitter) by the verified account Crazy Clips, has gone viral with over 120,000 views. In the clip, the man is seen precariously holding the appliance at a window ledge before pushing it off, only to watch it fall disastrously. The video has ignited a mix of humor and disbelief among viewers, with some quipping that the mishap might have been an attempt to clear out an apartment without actually retrieving belongings.
