A group of young children have been spotted enjoying and cooling themselves off in a DIY pool placed on a moving trailer in Tonga.
The unusual scene has caught the attention of locals and travellers alike, sparking conversations on social media about the creativity.
The makeshift pool was being towed along a busy road on Tongatapu, with the young children under 10 left unsupervised in the trailer.
It appeared that an inflatable pool was positioned inside the fenced trailer before it was filled with water.
Kaniva News could not independently verify the authenticity of the footage.
The operator of the trailer could not be reached for comment.
Those who shared the footage with some Facebook users poked fun at the unusual scene and couldn’t help but make light of it, posting humorous comments and playful jabs at what they saw.
However, some commenters expressed concerns about the potential danger for the children if something went wrong along the road.
In Tongan, a commenter wrote: “Pe ‘oku fēfē fakakaukau ‘a e faka’uli?”, asking what the driver would think of any danger that could happen.
One commenter said they had seen several incidents where trailers flipped during towing, especially on busy motorways.
It is summertime in Tonga, making it a popular time for festivals and gatherings, while many seek refuge under palm trees or enjoy refreshing coconut water to stay cool.
