In a jaw-dropping moment that could only happen in New York, a man was spotted cycling through Greenpoint, Brooklyn, with an actual refrigerator balanced on his head. The surreal sight, caught on camera, has gone viral online and stunned thousands of viewers across social media platforms.
As reported by The New York Post, the man behind the fridge-balancing stunt is none other than local daredevil and stuntman Leh-Boy Gabriel Davis. He was seen pedaling a Citi Bike down Nassau Avenue toward Dobbins Street while casually balancing the full-sized fridge like it was no big deal.
“That is wild!” exclaimed the person filming the video, clearly struggling to believe their own eyes.

Not His First Rodeo… Or Appliance
Turns out, Davis is no stranger to turning heads on NYC streets. Back in 2023, he had already made headlines for riding a bike while balancing a sofa on his head — a stunt that sparked both disbelief and a standing ovation from the internet.
Reddit Reacts: “Bro Never Skipped Neck Day”
The video was shared on Reddit by a user named Justin_Godfrey and has already racked up over 32,000 upvotes and hundreds of hilarious comments.
One Redditor declared, “This is necks level.”
Another joked, “Give this man a delivery job immediately.”
Someone marveled, “I can’t even lift a fridge with two people helping — how is this possible?”
While another quipped, “Bro never skipped neck day.”
Of course, no viral moment is complete without a New York nod. One user simply wrote, “Only in New York.” And yet another crowned Davis the “Brooklyn’s balancing king.”
Some users even likened the act to a scene from a video game, calling him a “real-life GTA player.” Others speculated whether the fridge was empty, full, or perhaps magically weightless.
Only in New York
As one commenter perfectly summed it up:
“New York never disappoints when it comes to weird sightings.” And with Davis’s jaw-dropping balance, this bizarre moment may just go down in NYC’s ever-growing hall of viral street legends.
