Money Heist ‘Robbers’ Show Up At Penang PPV To Get Vaccinated

It has been a week ever since the first part of the fifth season of Money Heist came out on Netflix. Netizens on every platform are still excitedly talking about the show.

If you do not know, Money Heist is a Spanish crime heist drama that features eight people recruited by a mastermind to carry out an ambitious plan of entering the Royal Mint of Spain and escaping with €984 million (RM4,826,386,983). The final part of the series is set to come out on 3 December 2021.

On 6 September, Nur Iliya Syazwani (@iliyapengyou on TikTok) uploaded a video on TikTok. The short video turned out to be an instant hit and garnered over 1.1 million views, 129,000 likes, 1,539 comments and 5,456 shares at the time of writing.

The video features four individuals dressed in red jumpsuits while wearing masks as though as they came out of Money Heist. In the caption, Nur Iliya said that they normally see foreigners in the PPV where she is volunteering at.

Speaking to WORLD OF BUZZ, 22-year-old Nur Iliya said that when they noticed the quartet, they felt very excited.

“The other volunteers and I felt so excited as this is the first time someone showed up in a costume at our centre. We think it is a good effort to encourage others to take the vaccine.

“They put a smile on our faces as it is not something you see everyday. We really enjoyed their presence!”

Netizens had a good laugh in the comments section.

Nur Iliya also explained that they verified the identity of the people (no, they are not Denver or Rio) and they actually showed up in costume for the second dose of their vaccine. Other than that, the 22-year-old volunteer hopes that all Malaysians will take the vaccine if they can!

We hope so too! We wonder how long the quartet took to plan this whole thing.
