News reporting can turn out be a boring period of time both for the reporter and the viewers unless we are focusing on something as fascinating as Beyonce performing for the Ambanis. And perhaps, to break the monotony of typical reporting techniques, we have seen reporters pulling off some absolutely bizarre stunts in recent times.
From sitting in a pink kiddy pool in waterlogged streets to decoding Sridevi’s death from inside a bathtub, crazy journos have given us numerous moments to laugh at. However, just when we thought we have seen them all, a Pakistani reporter has managed to grab eyeballs with his freakish way of presenting news.
In a video going viral on social platforms, reporter Amin Hafeez can be seen talking about the flourishing donkey business in Lahore. But wait. What’s wrong in it?
Well, let us tell you about it.
In a bid to make it relatable and realistic enough, Hafeez faced the camera sitting on a donkey and a mic in hand! How extra is that!
In case you do not know, Hafeez, who works for Pakistan Geo News, has a record of reporting from the most unusual places.
It was not only the sight of Hafeez struggling to control the donkey that was funny but his words were equally hilarious.
“Insaan aur gadhe ka rishta toh sadiyo purana hai, magar Lahore mein gadho ka karobar achanak chamak uthne se gadha palne wale log khushi se phule nahi sama rahe (The relationship between the humans and donkeys goes way back, but the sudden rise of the donkey rearing business in Lahore is making breeders ecstatic).”
Pakistani journalist Hamid Mir shared the video from his official Twitter account.
