He posted the 22-second video featuring the surprise quirky entrance on Twitter, where it’s garnered a mixed reaction.

And finally, we’ll leave you with this puntastic take…

Imagine if a killer came up those stairs and inadvertently yeeted your Weetabix everywhere whilst you’re trying to have breakfast. No-one wants a cereal killer to appear in their kitchen.
