Clip of China dad’s fit of rage over daughter drying hair with tissues gains 110 million views
Enraged man loses control, slams plastic chair at bedroom door as daughter hides inside; smashes up hairdryer
An angry father in China smashed up his home and kicked the door of his daughter’s room because she used tissues and not a towel to dry her hair.
The father’s behaviour was exposed online by his wife on January 26, sparking public outrage after images of his emotional explosion were viewed 110 million times on one social media platform alone, the Beijing TV reported.
According to the mother, who lives in Guangdong province, southern China, after her daughter washed her hair, the father spotted some dandruff-like crumbs in her hair.
The father asked if the girl had used tissues to dry her hair despite his warnings not to do so.
The girl, whose age was not released in the report, insisted that she had used a towel. However, her father was not convinced.
The report did not explain why the father was so angered by the use of tissues, although some people online speculated that it could be related to the cost of tissues.
The enraged father smashed a hairdryer first.
Then, after the girl sought refuge in her room, the father was filmed turning the lock fiercely in an effort to open it.
