Gambling can be a dangerous, filthy habit. And if you were ever in any doubt of that, new footage has emerged that proves just how dirty this addiction can be.

CCTV cameras have captured the moment a man was so addicted to playing on slot machines that he couldn’t even tear himself away to go to the toilet.

The exact identity of the man in question or where the scene takes place is not known, but what is perfectly clear is that he has a serious gambling problem. As you can see from the video below, the man gets the call of nature while playing on the machine but chooses not to part company with the game, instead walking a solitary few paces to the corner of the public amusement arcade, dropping his trousers and ridding himself of whatever bowel movements were bothering him.

To make the already shocking scene even more startling, having returned to the slot machine the mystery gamer realises there is still more to come. Again, rather than searching out the nearest toilet or even returning back to the corner he used the first time he simply squats right next to where he is playing and plops out another bit.

Was that enough to make the man sheepishly sneak out of the arcade? No, he kept button bashing away. Watch the footage below:
