A Nigerian man caused a buzz online after sharing a video of free items he stumbled upon while walking down a street in the UK, which included a bed, shelf, washing machine, baby cot, and various fairly used household items.
The young man, who goes by the handle @demo_uk, playfully claimed to have “rented” a house that required furnishing, taking to the streets to showcase an array of discarded furniture and appliances found curbside.
In the video that quickly gained traction on social media, @demo_uk can be seen filming various items, including beds of different sizes and even a colt, all left abandoned on the side of the road.
With a lighthearted tone, the funny man emphasized how easy it appeared to be to furnish a home in the UK simply by picking up some of these discarded items.
Many viewers in the comment section have shared their agreements and personal anecdotes about experiencing this phenomenon themselves.
