Four men in Qingdao of Shandong Province threw flyers that look like money from a truck on an overpass on Sunday, and caused a severe traffic jam, reports Bandao Metropolis.

Many cars stopped to pick the worthless pieces of paper and some cars yanked their emergency brake to dodge the flyers.

After being stopped by the police, the young men explained that they did so to see whether people would really think the flyers were money.

The four men altogether threw out more than one hundred money-like pieces of paper and they were ordered to pick up their litter. (CD)
