Strangely built house in rural village has Mzansi raising their eyebrows

Meanwhile, Briefly News previously reported that a strange new building technique has definitely left South Africans in wonderment after snaps of an oddly constructed home were shared online. It appears the home has been built using one very unusual bricklaying technique.

Heading to his official Twitter account, @kulanicool shared the very interesting snaps: "Defying laws of engineering" he sarcastically captioned the post.

Looking at the picture, it appears the rural home's been constructed using both vertical and horizontal facing brickwork as opposed to the more common uninformed choice. Many social media users were stunned the home could even stand upright at all.
