New Zealand - What's he doing there? A man came up with the idea of washing himself thoroughly in a public swimming pool in New Zealand - even in particularly intimate places.

His questionable action was captured on video and shared on Facebook . Millions of clicks were the result!

The man wore dark grey swimming trunks and stood in knee-high water while he lathered himself up with soap - children were playing just a few meters away.

But then he takes it to the extreme - a shocked voice can be heard behind the camera: "What the (...). Hey, he's washing his fucking ass!"

Many users described similar incidents in the comments. One woman wrote: "This is how I got seriously ill in 2021. I was in a hot tub and this guy thought it would be a great idea to wash himself in it."

She went on to say that within two days she became seriously ill with chills and vomiting. She was eventually diagnosed with a blood infection at the hospital and doctors asked her where she had been.

"What's wrong with this guy? No common sense and obviously no running water at home," another user got upset.
