Woman Throws ₹1.5 Crore from Balcony, Video Goes Viral

A shocking incident from Guangdong, China has gone viral after a woman allegedly threw a large sum of cash from her apartment balcony. According to reports, she tossed around $162,000 (approximately ₹1.5 crore) into the air, including crisp 1,000 Hong Kong dollar notes, creating a dramatic “rain of money” scene that stunned onlookers.
As the currency notes fluttered down, pedestrians and nearby residents rushed to collect the cash, leading to chaos on the streets. The situation quickly escalated, forcing police to step in and control the crowd. Authorities stated that the incident was not a publicity stunt. Preliminary findings suggest the woman was mentally distressed, possibly due to a family issue or illness, and acted impulsively during an emotional breakdown.
Honesty Test as Police Urge Public to Return Cash
Property management authorities have confirmed that the scattered currency notes were genuine, intensifying the seriousness of the incident. In response, police launched a search operation, using loudspeakers to urge people to return the money to its rightful owner. While a few individuals came forward and handed back the cash, many others fled the scene after collecting the notes.
Officials noted that such incidents are not entirely unprecedented in China, with past cases involving suspects throwing bundles of cash out of windows in an attempt to destroy or conceal evidence.
