Kel, who took crisps and drinks and an empty bottle to wee in, filmed himself inside as he was handed over and taken to a  sorting office.

In his video, which has had 1.8 million views, Kel  ripped a hole in the cardboard and filmed the outside.

He admitted: “It’s so cold. They’ve left me outside. Wait,  they’re loading me. These people proper throw  stuff around.”

Afterwards, Kel called it “the dumbest  thing I’ve ever done. I’m so glad I got away with it”.

Royal Mail chiefs have issued a warning against  the Human Mail Challenge, which originated in the US.

A  spokesman said: “It is ­dangerous and those who do it risk serious injury.”
