A man has been spotted autosurfing a Honda SUV on a busy road in a bizarre stunt that left motorists in disbelief.
The dangerous incident was caught on camera on Monday along Horsley Drive in Fairfield, western Sydney.
The 30-second clip shows a man, dressed in jeans, a vest over a T-shirt and a yellow hat, crouching atop a white Honda CR-V SUV.
He stands and gestures to traffic coming from the other direction.
The man then sits back on the roof of the SUV to regain his balance before making more gestures.

Fortunately, no one was injured in the incident.
A spokesperson for NSW Police said that ‘Fairfield Highway Patrol officers are aware of the video and are investigating the incident’.
Anyone with information is asked to contact police immediately.
The state government held a parliamentary inquiry into autosurfing in 2003.
Information on the NSW Parliament website calls motor surfing ‘a dangerous activity by vehicle occupants (mostly young people) that can cause serious injury or death’.
“Sometimes this is done as a game or challenge to see who can stay seated the longest and land on your feet when the car or ute suddenly stops or spins,” the website continues.
A teenager was injured in a motorsurfing incident in Coffs Harbor on the NSW Mid North Coast in April 2021.
