There is no doubt that durian is a pretty controversial fruit.

You either absolutely love it or absolutely cannot stand to be 500 meters close to it.

Bow to the king.

The reaction that a group of postal workers in Germany had towards a shipment of the fruit however can be considered epic.

According to CNN, twelve postal workers had to receive medical treatment after coming in close contact with a shipment of the fruit!

Groups evacuated




Adding to the epicness of the situation, the report said that dozens more were evacuated from the post office in Schweinfurt after postal staff noticed the foul-smelling package.

Things got so bad that workers even called the police, firefighters and emergency services to deal with the mysterious package.

"Due to the unknown content, it was initially unclear whether the suspect package posed a greater risk," the police later explained.

Of course everything settled down after officials discovered that the package contained four Thai durians.

Laaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Threatening scent?

We guess to non-durian lovers (or for those who have never come in contact with the fruit), the smell of the King of Fruits can definitely be considered "threatening"...we guess.
