Video: Man has shisha on busy Saudi street

A Saudi man spread a sheet in the middle of a busy street in the Gulf kingdom and smoked shisha to the surprise of drivers who slowed down to curiously watch him.

A YouTube film published in Saudi newspapers showed the man took no notice of scores of cars that surrounded him as he puff at the shisha on that road in the northwestern Saudi town of Tabuk.

It was not clear why the man chose that dangerous place to smoke but one reader commented: “It seems the shisha has affected this man’s brain.”
