VIDEO – Saudi Man Celebrates Snowfall Performing a Penguin Slide
Snowfall isn’t a common sight in Saudi Arabia. So when a few brave snowflakes dare fall upon the Saudi desert, the locals are typically quick to capture the event, and hotheads eager to experiment new stunts.
Among the latter, a young Saudi man from the governorate of Ha’il in the north of the kingdom attempted a hilarious slide, performed lying on his stomach, along a snow-covered sand dune last weekend.
