Imagine tuning in to watch a chill drive through Qingdao, only to panic because the driver seems like he's playing hide-and-seek with his eyes 👀. This isn’t a thriller, it’s just the peculiar tale of a young man who went viral not for his driving skills or scenic views, but for his near-perpetually 'closed' eyes during a livestream.

Yes, you read that right! Half a million viewers insisted on calling the cops because they thought he was risking life and limb playing a dangerous game behind the wheel. Spoiler: the actual reason will crack you up.

The driver, famous for his tiny, narrow eyes (something that’s totally normal for him), bravely responded by posting side-by-side videos to prove that—surprise, surprise—his eyes were indeed open, just... barely. Scroll through Douyin and you’ll find comments like, "Bro, are those really eyes?" and "I need a magnifying glass!" 🤓

He even joked about his struggle to open them wider for the audience: "I’m trying harder to open them like this..." Cue the collective chuckles. His eyelids don’t play by typical rules, and viewers found the whole situation amusing rather than alarming. Sometimes reality is just funnier than fiction!
