A short video from Pakistan has been making waves on the internet, leaving viewers in stitches. The clip features a Pakistani pilot dealing with a fogged-up cockpit windshield in a way that has sparked a wave of amusement and comparisons to local bus drivers.
The 19-second video shows the pilot hanging out of the cockpit, using a cloth to clean the windshield. This practice, while common among pilots worldwide, has taken on a humorous twist in this particular video. The laughter from the person filming the clip only adds to the comedic nature of the scene.
Shared on social media platform X by the account @gharkekalesh, known for sharing local videos, the clip quickly garnered views and over 914.7K engagements. The caption simply read: “Pilots in Pakistan are Cleaning the Glass of Plane.”
The video has resonated with netizens across the globe, sparking playful comments and incredulous observations. One user joked, “Hilarious, this could happen only in Pakistan.” Another user found humor in the very fact that Pakistan has flights and pilots to fly them, stating, “Pakistan me flight chal rahi hai aur pilot chala rahe hai yahi bahoot badi baat hai.”
Many viewers compared the pilot’s actions to those of bus drivers, with comments like, “Pilot hai ya Haryana Roadways ka conductor?” and “Lahore roadways.” However, some users pointed out that this is a common practice among pilots, emphasizing that while they can always ask for help, it’s perfectly acceptable for a pilot to clean the windshield themselves.
One user even commented, “He is more professional than Babar Azam.” Another added a humorous twist, suggesting that the pilot was once a cab driver. The video continues to circulate online, capturing the internet’s fascination with the pilot’s unique windshield cleaning routine.
