A Chinese man has been living in an airport for the past 14 years.
A man spent 14 years living at an airport in China
Wei Jianguo has resided in Terminal 2 of Beijing Capital International Airport since 2008 after leaving home to escape his family.
Wei claims that his relatives prevented him from smoking and drinking and decided to live at the airport after losing his job.
He told China Daily: "I can't go back home because I have no freedom there.
"My family told me if I wanted to stay, I had to quit smoking and drinking. If I couldn't do that, I had to give them all my monthly government allowance of 1,000 Yuan. But then how would I buy my cigarettes and alcohol?"
Remarkably, Wei does not have the record for the longest time living at an airport - as Turkish man Bayram Tepeli resided at Ataturk Airport from 1991 until its closure in 2019.
