Man wears dead wife's clothes

A man was spotted in public wearing weird clothes - lilac leggings, high heels and pink lingerie.

The man's choice of clothing has made him a viral video sensation. But his friends have been quick to his defence and have stated that the widower lost his wife two years back and he actually wears his late wife's garments to feel closer to her and also as he cannot bring himself to throw her clothes away.

The man from China has been spotted quite often on public transport in Zhengzhou, Henan province.

Several videos have surfaced on the internet. One of the clips shows the widower holding a plastic bag while boarding the bus. After taking his coat off, he puts on the girlie clothes before topping off the look with high-heeled shoes. The footage attracted 2.4 million hits in just 15 hours, reports  Localsyr.com.
