LOS ANGELES, March 22 (UPI) -- A man and woman in California were spotted driving down the street while lounging in a motorized papasan chair.

A photo showing the couple crossing Olympic Blvd. in Los Angeles was posted to Reddit by user socalsubie on Monday.

Soon afterward another user shared a link to a post showing what appeared to be the same couple driving the vehicle on a local sidewalk approximately two weeks earlier.

It was later confirmed -- by Reddit user BooBooKitty, who claimed to be the man's cousin -- that both posts were of the same couple.

BooBooKitty described the male papasan rider as "a smart guy who likes to work on random projects" and promised to ask if he would provide some insight about the strange vehicle, possibly including a tutorial showing how it was made.

"He comes from a long line of pranksters with good senses of humor," BooBooKitty wrote of the mysterious inventor.

This guy took his date down Sawtelle Blvd in his modified papasan electric wheelchair!
