A resident took the Dubai Fitness Challenge to the next level on Saturday - when he pulled a double-decker bus.
According to this tweet by Roads and Transportation Authority (RTA) Dubai, one of their employees pulled off this stunt in an open ground in Dubai - pulling the huge public bus a few feet.
It is noteworthy that the average weight of a double-decker bus is 12.6 tons!
Earlier over the weekend, crowds thronged Skydive Dubai with friends and family on Friday to take part in the Dubai Fitness Challenge carnival, the arena transformed into an open-air party with pulsating music and several fitness classes going on simultaneously at the venue.
