Think the rich kids on Instagram and Snapchat are annoying? Meet the Chinese couple that brought traffic to a standstill when they boarded a helicopter that landed on a street in China.
According to
People's Daily Online, the incident occurred on July 24 on Nanyuan Road in Shanghai and caused a severe traffic jam for over an hour causing locals a lot of inconvenience.
The couple had apparently hired the helicopter to fly them to the destination for their wedding. The aircraft would also symbolize that their destiny together was a blessing from above.
