Mani Manithan is a crazy man. And when we say crazy, we mean it in a good way.
Manithan runs a cellphone store in Tiruppatur, Tamil Nadu. He seems like an everyday guy—until you notice what’s different about him.
He only walks backwards.
Manithan claims to have been walking backwards since 1989—so much so that he’s forgotten how to walk normally.
“Walking normally is more of a challenge - my mind has forgotten how to do it. I have become very comfortable walking like this,” he says. You must absolutely know the reason for this ridiculous pursuit.
He also claims that he protested the US invasion of Iraq by walking backwards nude, but was arrested within the first kilometre and sent to jail for three days.
So here’s what you can do to stop Manithan from walking backwards.
Don’t be communal. Be nice to people. Help to spread literacy. Help people learn to read and write. Petition the leaders of the world for nuclear disarmament.
Because till that happens, Manithan promises to keep walking.
