The world is sometimes a scary and sad place. A short video that was posted by @eh_dausss went viral as soon as he shared it on 1st August (Thursday).
Orang tu tak kacau sesapa pun tapi kenapa kejam sangat sampai buat macam tu dekat dia ? Kita taktau apa yg dia lalui sampai dia jadi mcmtu and i bet dia pun tak minta hidup macam tu. ? pic.twitter.com/VtJlOkmtrM

In the video, a presumably homeless person was seen sleeping on the side of a walkway.
Suddenly, what looks like a white plastic bag full of water fell right on the person’s face.
How terrible is that? The Twitter user who posted the video shared his thoughts in the tweet too.
“That person didn’t disturb anyone, but why would someone be so cruel to do that to him? We don’t know what he has been through and I bet he didn’t ask for a life like this,” Daus wrote in his tweet.
Netizens shared their thoughts on this heartbreaking video too.
One Twitter user said “Don’t play around when people are sleeping. He can literally die.”
Another netizen shared that even if we are educated, if we forget to show compassion to the less fortunate, then we need to rethink about our empathy.
The tweet has now garnered over 25.9K retweets and 10.6K likes, the number is still growing. Daus explained that he originally received the video through a Whatsapp group chat. He said that the original video was even more tragic because he could hear people’s laughter.
It is hoped that the man was not seriously injured by this ignorant prank. We should treat the less fortunate with kindness and respect because they are human beings too.
