With unpredictable weather that has been plaguing Malaysia for the past few weeks, it’s important for members of the public to be wary of their surroundings for the time being. One burger stall owner received this reminder in the form of a heavy rainstorm that nearly destroyed his entire business setup.
A recent TikTok video by Penang burger stall AB MONSTER OFFICIAL to their page @burgerjalanansungaiara has been capturing the attention of many online after strong winds and harsh weather knocked over their roadside stall in Sungai Ara.
In the clip, business owner Raden Shazmil could be seen operating the stall with the assistance of an employee. As rain continued to persist, one single moment saw the weather go completely out of control, causing Raden to temporarily stop his work and stand by his stall. Seconds later, the unimaginable happens as the winds literally blow his stall to fall over, almost crushing him beneath it.
Luckily for Raden, him and his employees narrowly escape unharmed as all of their equipment, food preparation, and produce, gets scattered all over the road where they were set up.
Choosing to find the bright side of the unfortunate moment, Raden checks in on his employees who are all smiles are they embrace the situation while the rain continued.
At the end of the video, one of the employees of AB MONSTER apologised to customers for having to close early due to the inconvenient situation, adding that they would be open as usual the following day.
In a brief conversation with WORLD OF BUZZ, Raden shared that while the moment was scary for him to experience in the moment, his stall is already back to operating normally once more.

Sending a tonne of love and support to Raden and his workers, many Malaysians wished the storeowner well, hoping that their issues with the stall’s collapse would be resolved in time.
Multiple people even praised Raden and his employees for smiling throughout the brutal situation, as it was clearly a test not only for them as businessmen, but as regular people too.
“There is always a rainbow after the rain. Believe me when I say, after this, your stall will be more successful brother. God gives us tests to see if we can withstand it or not, God willing!” encouragingly wrote one user.
