A group of women, known as the "walking squad," caused a stir in China, when they were caught on camera breaking through barriers and disrupting a children's activity area.

Video filmed in the city of Zhengzhou in Henan Province on May 12 shows a group of women, dressed in matching vibrant clothing, kicking over the barricades and continuing walking.

"Baozou" which means "walk squad" is a popular form of exercise among middle-aged and elderly people in China.

In recent years, some members of these walking groups have become representative figures of street culture, dressed in eye-catching costumes and accompanied by loud slogans and music to boost their morale and sense of unity.

A netizen commented on Weibo, a Twitter-like social media, saying "so embarrassed."

The video was provided by local media with permission.

5月12日，河南郑州，一群身穿鲜艳统一服装的大妈“暴走团”路过一个儿童活动区时，不顾周围锥桶和护栏的阻拦，踢开护栏后继续前行。视频中大妈们显然没有遵循公共秩序和规则，完全没有考虑到其他人尤其是儿童的权益，这种行为的危害性不容忽视。
“暴走”，即以快速步行为主要方式来进行锻炼，“暴走团”一般由中老年人组成。近年来，随着该健身方式的流行，一些“暴走团”的成员们也成为了街头风景的代表，他们穿着鲜艳的服装，配合响亮的口号和音乐，来增加自己的气势和团结感。
