Viral video shows Brooklyn man cycling with fridge balanced on head

A baffling video has taken the internet by storm, capturing the moment a man was seen balancing a refrigerator on his head, while cycling through Nassau Avenue in Greenpoint, Brooklyn. The surreal sight, caught on camera, has gone viral, attracting thousands of amused viewers and reactions across social media platforms.

The man has been identified as Ley-Boy Gabriel Davis , a self-proclaimed “World recognised pro heavyweight head balancer” from Africa, according to The New York Post.

The clip, shared by X user Collin Rugg, shows Davis riding a Citi Bike with remarkable ease, the fridge perched firmly on his head. “Man seen balancing a refrigerator on top of his head while riding a Citi Bike in Brooklyn, New York,” Rugg posted. “This may be the only person in the world with a stronger neck than Mike Tyson.”

“This is wild!” the person filming the video can be heard exclaiming.

Netizens were quick to react, flooding social media with a mix of humour and disbelief. “This is necks level,” quipped a Reddit user, while another joked, “Bro never skipped neck day.” Some, however, remained unimpressed. “That’s a mini-fridge. Not that impressive, in my opinion,” a user commented on X.

This isn’t Davis’s first viral moment. In 2023, he made headlines for balancing a couch on his head while cycling — another stunt that left onlookers stunned.
