Man struggles on overloaded bike

An innovative man has been captured balancing the Shanghai Tower of bike loads as a gust threatens to send him flying.

Video, muffled by the blowing wind, shows the unidentified man navigating a congested city street in China with his precariously-perched carry-on.

The swaying load attracts the attention of a number of bystanders who giggle and pull out their cameras to record the feat.

He unsuccessfully tries to pedal, instead forced to shuffle the bike forward at a snail's pace.

Overloaded bikes worthy of an Olympic medal in Jenga are a common sight in China's sprawling metropolises, with traffic congestion often making travel by car or truck near impossible.
