Would you throw away a pricey gift from your parents if you didn't like it?
This is precisely what a man from India did, only, the gift happened to be a high-performance BMW M3. In a fit of anger, the spoilt 22-year-old deliberately plunged into a nearby river.
Why? Because he wanted a Jaguar instead.
A video taken on the scene shows the car slowly descending into the water before being fully submerged.
The clip has since gone viral worldwide, with global news media outlets picking the story.

Once upon a time they said dont waste food there are kids starving in India. An Indian kid dumps a BMW in a river because he wanted a Jaguar. Now watch this.
