“I woke up and decided to go out with my Aladin outfit for a day with my magic hover carpet board. I dressed up as Aladin and draped a rug over a hover board, creating my own ‘magic carpet.’ As any normal person would do, I floated around town, took the main roads to get to Walmart and then I got hungry so I took a trip to get some McDonalds,” he told the Saudi Gazette.
