October 05, 2023: In the era of social networking, a peculiar trend has emerged, especially capturing the attention of pet enthusiasts worldwide. People are increasingly adorning their pets with creative outfits, whether it’s dressing up their cats in Halloween-themed costumes or adorning their pet dogs in wedding attire. The array of pet fashion seems limitless. However, a recent viral video has taken this trend to the next level by featuring an unexpected participant: a fish wearing a Ghutra. Yes, you read that correctly. For those unfamiliar, a Ghutra, also known as a Keffiyeh, is a traditional Emirati headdress crafted from cotton, primarily worn by men alongside a Kandura.
In the video, a vibrant red and black fish can be seen elegantly adorned with a Ghutra, navigating its way within an aquarium. This footage was shared on Instagram by a user with the handle ‘technical personnel,’ accompanied by the caption, “Come to dubai.” This extraordinary fusion of pet fashion and cultural symbolism has sparked amusement across the internet.
Uploaded on September 28, this video has become an internet sensation, amassing a staggering 39.5 million views and over 1.3 million likes to date. The online community burst into fits of laughter upon viewing the video, with some users sharing witty comments and others expressing their amusement through a flood of laughing emojis in the comment section.
An individual wrote, “He probably keeps his owner as a pet.”
Another humorously added, “He probably has more money than you.”
“Bro is swimming in oil water,” read a comment.
One of the viewers said, “That fish has mad supercars hidden away with dust and sand all over them.”
Animal attire has a history of entertaining audiences, and another viral video is a proof to this tradition. The clip features an endearing small dog flaunting a comically creative costume designed for a fancy dress competition. This outfit boasts an amusing two-legged front design reminiscent of dungarees, coupled with a red and white striped T-shirt. Adding an extra layer of humor, the ensemble includes faux hands gripping a knife, while boldly proclaiming “good dogi” across its fabric.
