That's one way to get a tan! Motorist sunbathes on ROOF of his car after it breaks down in Sydney's busy city centre ... while onlookers stop and stare

  • Nonchalantly places towel on roof and sunbathes in front of onlookers
  • Astonished pedestrians stop, stare and take photos on their phones
  • Large volumes of traffic pass by as he casually reclines on car

The last thing most people would think about after their car breaks down on a busy city centre junction is sunbathing but one man was determined to focus on the 'positive'

While others may have let stress overcome them and impatiently paced on the pavement, this sun-worshipper decided to see the bright side of things.

Hektik Hektor, who was on his way to the beach in Sydney, decided that he wasn't going to let the heat get to him when he encountered some car trouble.

Mr Hektor decided on the usual action when his car overheated whilst he was driving through a congested area of central Sydney.

Instead of getting het up, he gets out of his car and looks under the bonnet before he takes a towel and places it on the roof. 

Moments later he peels off his t-shirt, climbs up onto the roof of the car and starts sunbathing right outside Sydney Town Hall, much to the bemusement of onlookers.

Mr Hecktor looks completely relaxed as he lies motionless whilst a flurry of buses and cars pass by the broken down vehicle on the congested road.

Dozens of people stop and point while a large number of people take photographs of the unusual scene on their mobile devices.
