“I was scared at how high I was carried.”

“This is something only people from Perak can relate to.”

Commenting on the video, netizens who were of Banjar descent lamented on how not many are willing to carry on the tradition anymore.

“I am from Sabak Bernam, and sadly this is no longer a custom in my village.”

“I would think that those who have siblings can do it.”
