Video: Hospital Staff Stitches His Slipper Using Surgical Needle And Thread; Netizens Say 'Doctor Se Mochi Tak, He Is Practising'

A hospital staff reportedly an on-duty medical student, was filmed using surgical tools to fix a broken slipper. The footage, which is both hilarious and concerning, is doing the rounds on social media.

The clip shows the student, dressed in blue hospital clothes, leaning down and stitching the slipper with a surgical needle and thread. He used the equipment typically used for medical sutures for a different stitch.

The video opened with the person placing his leg on a table adjacent to a patient's bed and carefully stitching his broken footwear strip.

Drawing neat loops as if performing minor surgery, he used the thread to fix the torn straps. With his face mask and surgical head cover, he stitched his slipper using the medical equipment.

The incident took place inside a hospital ward full of bedridden patients, but the exact location remains unknown.

Internet reacts

As the video surfaced online, it amused netizens.

While people shared laughter emojis in the comments section, they didn't question the risk factor if the same surgical needle and thread were used on a human body later.

"From doctor to mochhi tak (cobbler)", read a comment. "He's just practising", quipped another. Instagram users joked about the student extending his medical expertise to footwear.
