A man’s video call with family leads to an accidental collision on a busy street

A pedestrian using a selfie stick for a video call in a bustling shopping area accidentally bumped into another person, causing a brief moment of tension that was quickly diffused by an apology from the caller’s family member on the other end of the line. The incident highlights the potential for minor mishaps in crowded public spaces due to the use of technology.

The man, sporting a bright pink turban, was walking down the street while seemingly being led by the selfie stick in his hand. Instead of taking photos, he was engaged in a video call. The phone screen displayed a brightly colored kitchen, likely located in India, where a mustachioed man was sitting at a table.

Their conversation, spoken in a rapid language, was punctuated by the sound of suppressed laughter. However, the merriment was interrupted when the selfie stick and phone collided with the chin of an approaching person, who reacted in surprise.

The initial dismay of the turban-wearing man and the rising anger of the person who was hit were diffused by calming words from the man in the Indian kitchen. A voice from the phone apologized, explaining, “Sir, I’m very sorry for my stupid brother.” The situation concluded with a burst of laughter from all three individuals.
