An Indian-origin man has deleted his social media profiles after a video of him dancing at the World War II Memorial in Washington, D.C. sparked widespread outrage.
The video, which shows him performing the popular 'Don't Rush Challenge' in front of the memorial, drew fierce criticism from people questioning the choice of location.
The original video has been deleted, but it is now circulating on social media platforms, with some users criticizing the act and sharing varied reactions, including racist ones.
Some users expressed their disappointment, stating that a war memorial is a place of sacrifice and silence, not a stage for TikTok dances, and that the behavior reflects poorly on the hardworking Indians in America who honour that legacy.
Online sleuths claim that the man in the video works at Palo Alto Networks and runs a dance studio, but these claims have not been independently verified.
