[Instant News/Comprehensive Report] The 2022 Year of the Tiger is coming to an end, and just as everyone is preparing to welcome the 2023 Year of the Rabbit, a well-known Japanese Twitter influencer and YouTuber has a whim, using the stripes on the tiger's body as a barcode, trying to scan out anything, As a result, this seemingly nonsensical challenge, after 8 hours of tireless scanning, "something" really appeared!

"ARuFa" is a well-known Twitter celebrity and YouTuber in Japan. He often shares all kinds of weird DIY photos on the social media he runs, or makes funny videos that make everyone want to complain. He has millions of followers on Twitter and nearly 860,000 followers on YouTube.

On the 19th, he once again shared his latest weird video with the theme "Try to use tiger stripes as a barcode and see what products you can scan."

Please read on...

ARuFa said that the year of the tiger is coming to an end, and every time I see the stripes on a tiger, it always feels like a product barcode, so I always hold that if I scan it with a machine or mobile app, something unexpected may appear .

In order to prove his conjecture, ARuFa downloaded several photos of tiger stripes, and spent 8 hours scanning these photos one by one with a barcode scanning app on his mobile phone. As a result, he actually scanned out a "valid barcode".

Then ARuFa took the barcode number displayed on this valid bar to search for the corresponding products on the Internet, and found a seal named "Hosaka". Netizens also laughed after seeing the video, "I'm about to die laughing www", "Next time you can consider trying zebra stripes", "No wonder the Japanese invented the QR code", "When I think of the fact that there is only one in this world Tiger lives with the bar code of the Hosaka seal, I can't stop laughing."
