Today, influencers do a lot of things to get likes, and attention.
But, sometimes they cross all the limits and do something gravely offensive that annoys loads of people.
One Czech ‘influencer’ couple have done something so disgusting that people make annoyed, they filmed themselves using the holy water from a Hindu temple in Bali to splash it on the woman’s bum. The stunt has caused outrage in Indonesia, where the spring water is used for ritual purification.
Czech couple Sabina Dolezalova and her boyfriend Zdenek Slouka filmed the video clip at a Hindu temple in the town of Ubud on the Indonesian island of Bali and Dolezalova and shared it on social media, to get likes and more followers.
In the video, the couple can be seen standing together in front of a shrine of holy water in the temple when Slouka goes to put his hand under the running water.
His girlfriend then lifts her skirt, and her boyfriend splashes the holy water on to her bum as she screams playfully.
The video has received criticism from Indonesians. Known to be a conservative country, where the majority of tourists respect local customers, many locals were deeply offended by their actions at the holy site.
Local designer Niluh Djelantik called for Bali to become more ‘attentive’ towards the tourists they select and visit the destination after watching the clip.
After getting a negative response, the Czech pair uploaded the apology video, saying sorry for their actions on social media.
In the clip, the boyfriend says: “Hey, we are so sorry about the video from yesterday. We dishonored the holy temple and holy water in Ubud and we didn’t know it, so we are so sorry about what happened.”
His girlfriend then says: “Because we had no idea that was some holy water or that there is a holy temple. We didn’t want to do anything bad, we are so truly sorry. We hope you are going to forgive us and now we are just finding what we can do to fix it.”
