Imagine walking into a store, hearing the saleswoman’s voice, but not being able to see her anywhere. That happened to a customer in Vietnam, and the reason was incredible: she and the saleswoman were moving at the same pace and in opposite directions around the displays, as if they were synchronized without knowing it.

For an entire minute, the two women kept passing by each other again and again, always hidden behind the clothing racks; the unintentional choreography was perfect. Every time one moved forward, the other did the same but in the opposite direction.

Finally, fate put them face to face, colliding unexpectedly, and the moment was captured on video. The scene went viral, and users highlighted how absurd and funny the situation was. “It’s proof that the universe sometimes has a very particular sense of humor”, commented one internet user.
