Hong Kong Police Tear-Gassed Themselves Because They Forgot How Downwind Works
I know Unilad is a trashy clickbait site but the headline was worth noting
https://www.unilad.co.uk/news/hong-kong-police-tear-gassed-themselves-because-they-forgot-how-downwind-works/
Footage has emerged from Hong Kong which shows police officers accidentally tear-gassing themselves, apparently forgetting about the effects of downwind gusts.
Officers had been trying to tear-gas protesters in the north west town of Sheung Wan. However, this quite literally blew back in their faces.
The footage has been shared by Hong Kong University’s HKU Campus TV Facebook page, and shows the deployed tear gas blowing straight back over police lines.
