A video of a man feigning injuries after running into an oncoming vehicle has left netizens in stitches.

The video, posted by a Facebook user, Jacky Ang, showed a vehicle as it was traversing down the middle lane of road on Sunday (Nov 5) at around 5.48am, as indicated by the timestamp. 

The driver of the vehicle then slows down and stops his vehicle as he notices a man running towards him, along with an accomplice on the leftmost lane. 

The man throws himself onto the windscreen of the vehicle and falls off, holding his stomach as he lay on the road as if he was in excruciating pain. 

Meanwhile, his accomplice runs up to him and chastises him.

Said Jacky: "Welcome to Singapore New Talent."

Another netizen commented that this was not the first time such a thing had happened, while some took the chance to highlight the importance of having a dashboard camera in their vehicles.
