This man used a contact microphone to pick up the surface noise of quilted toilet roll as it moves along a modified turntable, while in self-isolation as COVID-19 outbreak sweeps the UK.

The video from Thursday (March 19) shows the roll move along just like a reel-to-reel tape player would.

The filmer, Michael, told Newsflare: "This is a fun experiment if you have stocked up on too much toilet roll, don't worry nothing was wasted!"
