A Russian influencer conducted a weird stunt with his girlfriend to check their trust level by tying her to the roof of the car and driving it.
Influencers do all kinds of weird things to get more engagement on social media portals. It could include following new trends or just trying to create a new one.
But an influencer from Russia took things a little too far. This influencer by the name of Sergey Kosenko drove around in his car with his girlfriend tied to the roof of the car and handcuffed to him.

The influencer shared a video on Instagram of him driving through Moscow in a Bentley with his other half tied up on the roof. The influencer and his girlfriend take several 'trust tests' and this is one of them according to him. He even makes various kinds of funny videos with her.
Sergey, who has five million followers, obviously tried this to impress his fans. However, it has been reported that he has been fined 750 rubles (?7/$10).
In the video, a piece of Russian background music plays while the influencer drives around with his girlfriend tied to him. People who watch this act are visibly very confused and surprised to see this act.
This wasn't the end of this though. In a statement, Moscow State Traffic Inspectorate said it was investigating. It said: "Employees of the Moscow State Traffic Inspectorate initiated a check on the fact of a video posted on the Internet, in which a girl is tied on the roof of a moving car."
Indeed, lawyer Konstantin Yurkov said there could be more trouble heading his way.
He told Life: "Firstly, there may be an administrative liability for violating the rules of transportation of passengers, that is, a fine of up to 1,500 rubles (?14/$20).
"But it may also be criminal - if as a result of this trip the girl was injured."
Several people criticised him on social media too. One person said: "I don't see what's funny about it to be honest, and yet everyone is laughing. This is the example you set to children, most of all your own?"
Another commented: "No guys, this is not cool or fun. You set an example in any situation and the kids see it and start copying, and it may end up differently."
After his post got viral. Many people and even the authorities criticized this act. Following that, he made a sarcastic Instagram post where he watching a news reporter talking about his dangerous stunt. He apologised in that post too. He wrote in Russian, "I apologise. Ilona also apologises. It's a shame to lose RUB 750."
