Ask someone to name their favourite Mr Bean scene, and many of them will probably say the one with the sofa on his little car.
Mr Bean, much like many of us, was averse to paying hefty delivery fees, which is why he decided to transport all of his purchases from a home improvement store himself.
The only problem is that Mr Bean had possibly the tiniest car on the planet, which is why he had to attach the sofa he just bought to the top of the car. He then tied a rope to the steering wheel, and drove while seated on the sofa.
It was one of those absurdly improbable scenes from a television show that you’d never see in real life.
Until now, that is.
Driver Attached IKEA Sofa on Top of Car Like a Scene from Mr Bean
A video of an IKEA customer transporting a sofa in a rather unconventional manner has gone viral on social media.
It was first posted on TikTok by user khairulanwarsoria.
The video begins with a question that has plagued humanity since the beginning of time, or at least since at least 1978.
“How to shop in IKEA without delivery service”.
We then see a car inching out of a carpark as a man guides it out. It is only when half the car is out of the sheltered carpark that we see a large object on top of it.
It’s dark, amorphous, and hard to make out at first, but it all becomes clear soon:
Yes, this driver is transporting a sofa on top of their car. And not just any sofa. A two to three-seater.
Mr Bean was lauded for his transportation skills, and he only carried a single-seater on his car.
A picture from another angle was later shared on social media, showing that it was indeed a three-seater sofa:
It’s unknown if the car actually made it back all the way home with that big-ass sofa on top of it, but one important question remains: is this legal?
Roof Rack Should Not Exceed Vehicle’s Load Rating
Well, according to One Motoring, roof racks should not:
- protrude from the vehicle body laterally or longitudinally
- exceed the loading capacity of the vehicle or the roof rack
The cargo should also be securely fastened to the roof rack and no part of the cargo or its carrier should protrude laterally beyond the vehicle, it said.
Alternatively, you could just cough up $70 for an IKEA truck delivery.
That way you avoid the hassle and you don’t go viral on social media.
