Scots lad goes viral with bizarre bush camouflage video filmed in his garden

Bush camouflage suits are usually the preserve of soldiers, hunters and bird watchers - those with a serious interest in blending in with surrounding foliage.

They aren't an item found in the average Scot's wardrobe - but maybe they should be.

One Coatbridge man has gone viral after a video of him wearing a bush camouflage suit in his back garden appeared online.

But he's not tracking prey or an enemy - he's hiding from his dog.

Footage of Fraser McIlroy, 18, 'all ghillied up' in camouflage gear, was shared on Snapchat with the caption 'Possibly best £30 av spent in ma life.'

The video was then shared by pal Jack Cummings on Twitter where it has been viewed more than 200,000 times in less than 24 hours.

The hilarious clip shows Fraser sneaking behind his dog beside a bush.

Then, in true military style, he leaps across the garden chasing after his four-legged friend.

Jack captioned the Tweet: "Folded man all ma pals r skint then ye get mad fraser", which came after Fraser's Snapchat which read: "Possibly best £30 av spent in ma life".

Speaking to the Record, Jack said: "It's not even as if he said to any of us about him buying it.

"He just randomly sent that video into our chat and it's him rolling about in his garden in a ghillie suit".

Messages in the chat after the hilarious clip show Fraser's pals in stitches - with one saying: "I accc thought that was a bush."

Jack added that the group of pals have been loving the hilarity since the Tweet went viral.

He said: "We are all sitting drinking the now and he’s still got the ghillie suit on haha.

"That’s us just lost him again!"
