Absolute Chaos at Brazilian Supermarket on Super Sales Day

Thousands of customers flooded through the stores of a supermarket chain in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, on Friday, October 21.

This video, shot by one excited customer, shows the moment when the doors of one store opened, and the crowds flooding chaotically into shop.

The annual super sale of Supermercado Guanabara is known for attracting thousands of customers, who line up hours before the stores open. The city put in action a special traffic plan ahead of the event to minimize problems around the chain’s 25 stores.

The video had over 470,000 views by the time of writing. Credit: Facebook/Wellington Vinicius
