Humans are staying indoors due to the coronavirus outbreak in India, but monkeys have apparently decided that it's high time to have some fun outdoors to beat the heat.

In this video clip of a swimming pool in a residential complex in the Indian city of Mumbai, a group of monkeys are making the best of their freedom by jumping from balconies and beating the scorching heat of the season, while Indians are locked down amid the coronavirus.

A 21-day countrywide lockdown, introduced by Prime Minister Narendra Modi to combat COVID-19, which originated in Wuhan, China, has brought India to a standstill. The government has suspended all means of transport and shutt down all establishments, apart from essential services, as people have been urged to stay indoors.
