The unknown man was seen covered from head to toe in the neon substance, with two silver tins rolling on the floor beside him.
He can be seen wiping the paint from his eyes inside of the fast-food store, with one eyewitness claiming three lads ran in and threw it over him.
An alarm can be heard going off inside of the popular takeaway restaurant, with members of staff appearing unsure at what to do.
Multi-coloured feathers can be seen trailing behind the man and outside of the door as the victim appears shocked by the incident.

Members of staff told fellow customers that the police were on their way after the strange attack at around midnight yesterday.
Charlie Wheeler, 17 told The Sun: “It was the most bizarre thing I’ve ever seen in my life.
“We were waiting outside of the store and we saw the three lads run in, and they just chucked the paint all over him and pushed him to the floor.
“It was completely random, the man said that he hadn’t got a clue who they were.
