2 Guys Float In A Mattress On Flooded Streets, Twitter Calls It The ‘Mumbai Spirit’

Parts of the country including Mumbai, Kerala, Bihar and Assam have been ravaged by incessant rainfall and floods. Horrifying visuals of the damage caused by the floods have taken over social media and it is heartbreaking to see the plight of so many for whom the current situation is nothing but a nightmare.

However, amidst the depressing visuals, a video of two guys “chilling” on top of a floating mattress in the middle of a flooded street has gone viral on the internet.

Though we cannot verify the date and location of the video, the video has surfaced recently and people online claim that the incident took place in Mumbai.

Have a look:
