The Internet Is Obsessed With Watching People Cross This Puddle

What a time to be alive. Recent heavy rainfall has caused a pretty large puddle to form in Newcastle at Drummond Central. It’s pretty inconvenient. The Telegraph has discovered that the puddle is near a school and therefore many people need to cross by this mammoth puddle. Queue hilarious escapades. Drummond Central, a strategic marketing, creative, digital and social media agency has decided to periscope the whole ordeal to hilarious effect. Twitter users are absolutely transfixed. The commentary is just the most beautiful thing. Bravo puddle paddlers, bravo. You can watch the live feed HERE.

Watching #DrummondPuddleWatch, and we are so happy to be warm and dry in our office, instead of attempting to jump over that puddle... — TristanHay Interiors (@TristanHay) January 6, 2016
