In our adolescence we have all done some questionable things such as dropping things from high buildings, throwing rocks into water and making weird faces at people while we're in a school bus.

The incident was captured on camera and the footage has since gone viral on social media.

The TukTuk is captured being hit by a water balloon whilst speeding and immediately the driver loses control.

The rickshaw overturns and continues to skid on the long road until it comes to a stop.
