Who was the young man behind the epic Jugaad?

Although the clip has garnered almost 500,000 views on Twitter, the identity of the young genius has not been revealed. Like most viral videos on the Internet, the origins of this clip are also difficult to map.
What happened in the video?

Well, if you’re wondering what made the video such a hit with people on the internet, here’s a quick summary! In the clip, a young man is seen using a glowing jugaad to fight off an eclipse of moths floating near the light of a house.
To get rid of the moths, the boy used the flashlight on his phone to divert the attention of the insects. He tried to get the moths’ attention with the flashlight and then turned off the light in the house. He then tricked them into following the light from his phone as he guided them out of the house before redirecting them to the main streetlight.

It is unclear where the clip was filmed. However, it was shared on Twitter by the username @Yaadgar on October 20.
Why are moths attracted to lights?

Scientists have long wondered why moths are so attracted to light, even though it can be dangerous to them. Most moths that are active at night like to go towards the light, but some species, such as the elder moth, actually prefer to stay away from it.
Insects, especially moths, are very sensitive to this type of light. Many different ideas have been suggested to explain why this happens. One idea suggests that moths are attracted to the moon, leading them to fly higher on nights with bright moons.
Another, more plausible theory proposes that moths rely on the moon or stars for orientation, adjusting their flight path to maintain a constant angle with respect to the light source. However, while celestial light rays appear parallel, the lamp’s light radiates in several directions, distinguishing it from natural light sources.
How did the Internet react to the video?
People were incredibly impressed with the young man’s brilliant idea.
