Chinese digger driver disturbs colleague's poo by smashing up toilet block

Video footage from the site in Jiangxi, in southeast China, shows how workers used an excavator to destroy the temporary outside toilet that was apparently not worth dismantling.

Without warning, they bring down the digger's claw on the roof of the lavatory, ripping away the roof and the walls and squashing their pal on the ground after apparently striking him on his hard hat. The shocked worker still has his trousers down as he's sent sprawling face in the rubble.

Clearly shocked, he then stands up with as much dignity as he can muster, puts his blue hard hat on, pulls up his trousers and fastens his belt.

He also checked himself for injuries, apparently disbelieving that he seems to have survived the violent destruction of the toilet without serious injury.

Finally, he checks himself over for cuts and bruises as the clip, filmed on October 10, ends.

The footage sparked heated debate on social media across China as to whether it was a prank gone wrong or whether they had simply not realised he was inside.

One user said: "Blue hat: This is the most dangerous poo he probably ever had.”

Another wrote you can imagine his boss saying: "I told you to go to the toilet as soon as you start working."

Meanwhile, a third wrote: "No kidding, this excavator driver deserved a beating. He almost killed someone."
