Ever since Harry Potter got his amazing invisibility cloak all of us at some point dreamed of owning one. It would be so cool, right? Imagine the kinds of fun we could do if we get the power of invisibility. A cloak like that does not exist in all likelihood but on the internet anything is possible. A man from Edinburgh is going viral for his ad on Facebook to sell an invisibility cloak. Stewart Knox posted a very cheeky advert of selling his invisibility cloak and users seem to have believed him outright, making his post go viral.

Knox used his words right to attract the audiences. He posted 2 pictures, one of him enacting to hold a cloak and another in which there is nothing because of course, he is wearing the cloak. What's funnier is he wrote the price at £200 and asked users to get themselves a good bargain. Now people took him rather too seriously and began commenting on his posts. The post got so many likes and was shared over 12,000 times in four days of his posting the advert.

Some people clearly did not get the joke and kept commenting, enquiring about the availability of this cloak. But there were also some like-minded ones who sportingly gave it back to Knox. One of the users wrote, "I’ll take the invisibility cloak it works well mate, I’ll pay with cash my invisible £200, which you only need to hold up to the sun for 5-10 mins and it reappears, okay?" Yet another user joked that he too had one invisibility cloak but could not find it.

While Stewart Knox's post was all in good humour. His son is a big Harry Potter fan and he was just discussing the series with him. He took that point and decided to make the advert. Well, laughter is a good medicine and the post sure made some people laugh at his wit. Too bad for those, who actually had hopes of owning one.
