A young US rapper, Metro Marrs, pulled off a stunt that would probably have got him a pat on the back in other climes.

At his graduation ceremony in Atlanta, the man threw $5000 (N2,056,250) cash in the air and continued doing so despite authority trying to stop him.

Some did it better in the church

Meanwhile, Legit.ng earlier reported that a viral video shared by Twitter handle @Naija_PR showed young men throwing money in the air without caution in the church as the choir sang on.

Men believed to be either elders or pastors danced as some gathered the avalanche on the floor. A part of the video showed two full basins of money.

After spraying some notes, the men kneeled amid the prophets, dipped their hands into their bags for more bunches as they threw more into the offering basins.
