“I’ve used a bidet in France, it’s decent but it’s too big, this is a simple high-pressure shower head, more functional and easily adaptable. Will be investing when back in London. My bum is very thankful,” he added in a follow up tweet.

Vujanic also was so impressed with the toilet jet sprays that he wrote in one of his tweets that he wants the image of “bum showers” to be printed on the t-shirts.

“I want this image printed on a T-shirt… I am now the self-proclaimed founder of the Shatafa Ultras group.
