Absurd tire prank in storefrom @collinskey

[01]

Overview

The creator and several friends wear large car tires around their torsos and crawl rapidly through the aisles of a Target store, creating an absurd public spectacle. The chaotic, shaky footage captures them scurrying past clothing racks and other shoppers, while a persistent Indonesian text overlay jokingly labels them as an 'evil entity troubling the public,' framing the entire stunt as a surreal 'brainrot' meme.
