A video clip of a man smoking at a stadium in Turkey went viral after he was mistaken for a young child.
The fresh-faced individual was caught on camera puffing on a cigarette during a recent charity match between popular Turkish teams Fenerbache and Bursaspor.

When the clip first appeared online, social media users immediately expressed outrage at the fact that the 'boy' was smoking.
Incredibly however, it later turned out that the individual in question was in fact 36 years old.

The younger boy sitting next to him was his son.
