A Scooter-Riding Monkey Captured On Video Trying To Kidnap Toddler In Indonesia
There are plenty of bizarre videos on the internet: anything you can think of, it most probably exists.
The latest to join the playlist is a video that was shot in Indonesia, and let us get this out: we, too, have no idea what we just watched too.
A 15-second video showing a monkey riding a scooter down an alley has been circulating on social media site over the weekend.
A bizarre incident

A scooter-riding monkey is a pretty bizarre sight itself, but what makes this clip more bizarre was the fact that the monkey can clearly be seen trying to drag a toddler away!
In the video, the monkey can be seen zooming down an alleyway before jumping off the scooter in front of a group of children.

It loses its grip on the screaming child, but the monkey then turns back and starts dragging the frightened girl by her hand and her hair.
After getting pretty far with the child, an adult finally stepped in to chase the would-be kidnapper away.
You can check out the video below:
According to a report by TMZ, the video was supposedly shot by a man named Jasa Supanji in Surabaya, Indonesia.Ini pasti monyetnya tukang ribut di sekolah pic.twitter.com/niitXnmvwZ— ptr (@peteerh) May 3, 2020
Supanji reportedly told an Indonesian media that it is illegal to keep monkeys as pets in the country, but people are still doing it because, well, the consequences are basically non-existent.
Netizens are puzzled
The video clip has amassed more than 28 million views, and netizens have a lot of questions to ask after watching the video:? so much happening. 1) where that monkey get the minicycle? 2) why is that monkey so strong? 3) why didn’t nobody do anything? Does the monkey own that street? I’ve only seen mojo Jojo treat little girls so rough.??? wherever they live...I’m not going.??♂️ pic.twitter.com/n4KVfcNNKB— Kjones (@kjones254) May 4, 2020

However, there are some netizens who claimed that there's a probability that the monkey was trained to abduct small children for trafficking:I mean just so many questions immediately spring to mind.1. Are kidnapping monkey biker gangs a thing?2. Is this random or do the monkey and family know each other?3. Did...the monkey get his bike back?4. Where in Florida did this happen?— @PresidentShemp (@presidentshemp) May 4, 2020
Apparently it is a trafficking effort. The monkey grabs the kid and somebody pulls them both back. If things go south, they let go of the rope and the monkey takes the rap.— DiLatina (@PDX_DianeS) May 4, 2020
Whatever it may be, we can confirm that monkeys can be really mean at times.As one person noted- it's "an attempt by a human to steal a child for trafficking. The monkey is trained to grab the kid and you can see the line attached to the monkey to pull them both back quickly."— Dr. Magus (@ubervaper) May 4, 2020
Stay away if you see one, OK? You definitely don't want a monkey to drag you back home and make you its maid.
