This is the bizarre moment an Amazon customer unwrapped an enormous delivery box – with just a belt inside.
Astonishing pictures posted on Twitter show the female recipient standing beside the towering parcel.
The box, which is almost as tall as she is, contains six enormous rolls of protective paper.
But beneath all the wrapping, a comparatively small belt can be seen sitting in the bottom.

‘Could someone from @amazon explain the need for so much packaging to ship A BELT to my cousin?!’ the bemused customer captioned the photo.
She added: ‘How many trees suffered for this?!’
The post, published on Urban Pictures UK, shows the belt itself is also covered in swathes of protective plastic.

The pictures appear to have been taken in an office, as folders and a calendar can be seen in the background.
The woman, who received the parcel for her cousin, can be seen smiling as she stands beside the monster cardboard box.
It is not clear why Amazon decided the belt required so much protection on its journey.

This is not the first time the online giant has confused customers with their strange packaging decisions.
Deanna Walker, from Parkstone, Dorset, ordered a three-foot car guard from Amazon to prevent her four-year-old German Shepherd, Snowey, from getting into the front of the vehicle while she was driving.
But she was left baffled when she opened a ‘giant’ box containing 30 feet of brown paper.
