A man has been captured on CCTV in the cellar of a city centre bar - placing an ice bucket on his head as he creeps around.

The unidentified pub-goer was in the Bijoux bar in Newcastle-upon-Tyne on Saturday night when the bizarre incident took place.

The clip, which the team posted on Twitter on November 17, shows the man apparently unaware he is being filmed.

He is standing in front of an ice machine as the clip starts, and lifts the lid to look inside.

Dressed in a grey suit with neat, short hair, he then picks up a bright blue ice bucket which looks like a large, round bowl.

He feels its weight for a second then puts it on his head, pausing to look around for a second.

The Bijou team tweeted: "Does anyone know this man ?? He went into our cellar, opened the ice machine and put an ice bucket on his head. WTF?"

They did not mentioned any specific wrongdoing which was perpetrated, and the tweet elicited laughter among Bijou fans.

One commented: "You've just outed one of Daft Punk," with reference to the French dance duo's otherworldly helmets often seen in publicity shots.

Another added: "He thought he was trying on a motorbike helmet."
