To tackle the annoying stench and mess left behind by visitors relieving themselves on random walls in the St. Pauli neighbourhood, a group of residents in Hamburg, Germany, have recently started a “peeback” project that hopes to deter these visitors from peeing in public.
In the project, members from the St. Pauli’s Community of Interest group coated the walls in the neighborhood with a hydrophobic coating that repels liquids effectively.
As featured in the video, several unsuspecting visitors were shocked to have their pee splashed back on them, soiling their clothes and shoes.
What are you thoughts on this simple but clever solution to the problem of public urination?
