Crowd spends an hour trying to smash a shop window in France, but the glass withstands blows from bricks and kicks
Footage of the unrest has gone viral on Chinese social media. Users claim the window is made of ultra-strong glass from China’s Henan province. Chinese diplomat Zhang Heqing even reposted the video, describing the glass as “explosion-resistant.”
Hengxinfeng Special-Glass Co. Ltd has been accused of using the footage for advertising purposes, but there is no confirmation that the window was actually made from its glass.
Some users criticised the alleged advertising, saying that profiting from unrest and other people’s losses is unacceptable.
