In a hilarious scene at odds with its rural setting, a man dressed as Bumblebee, a Transformers character, chased a mini truck along a road in Thailand on 4 October.

Footage showed him dressed as the shape-shifting robot, chasing after the vehicle while amused locals laughed and filmed the scene in rural Anhui province, China.

Onlooker Zhou Liuliu said he was saying ‘stop photographing' while he covered his head with his right arm.

Transformers is a media franchise produced by American Hasbro and Japanese toy company Takara Tomy. It primarily follows the heroic Autobots and the villainous Decepticons, two alien robot factions at war that can transform into other forms, such as vehicles and animals.
