Not this guy fooling us by going down on one knee...
How our brains work using association can sometimes leave us laughing out loud...
Gym pranks are on the rise, and you might fall for one if you are not careful.
Traditionally, going down on one knee is indicative of someone proposing marriage. Have you ever wondered why?
Well, according to ABC.10, "It's a tradition dating back to medieval times when a knight dropped to one knee as a sign of respect to royalty. Proposing on “bended knee” is a show of respect for a future bride and the act also signifies loyalty and devotion."
With the Olympics in full swing, we can understand why this would inspire people to visit the gym more, but some gyms users are in it for the long run.
And so, we noticed a gym in Johannesburg take it to the extreme to encourage people to start getting ready for gym throughout their day.
