Watch the video

 

A 64 year-old man in Istanbul decided to brighten people's days by painting rainbow colors on the old, gray, crumbling stairs near his house.

When municipal officials sent workers after nightfall to hurriedly repaint the stairs gray, a quiet revolution started on Twitter.

Not only did volunteers come out to repaint those stairs that Huseyin Cetinel had spent hundreds of dollars on, they started painting other stairs and walkways in other cities around Turkey posting photos on social media.

A very colorful Pandora's Box had unwittingly been opened.

I love this paint job.  

It's one of the few remaining houses in an industrial/commercial area.

PS. it's the photo not the house that's crooked  😄  I was in the car in a no standing zone.

It looks similar to one in an industrial area close by.   That one has a red porch light.
