- Footage showed a woman casually playing guitar, oblivious that a large bird headed towards her.
- The video captured the pandemonium as the TikToker screamed, the bird squawked, and the dog barked.
A TikToker who filmed herself playing guitar unwittingly caught the moment a large bird flew into her apartment, causing absolute pandemonium.
On June 29, a TikToker who goes by Nikki Kundanmal posted a video which showed her strumming a guitar and singing along to the track "Kiss Me" by Sixpence None the Richer, while an on-screen caption read, "Having the most chaotic day of my life was not on my 2023 bingo card."

Soon after, a bird could be seen in the background landing on her balcony rail, while an on-screen caption said it was a hawk which the TikToker chose to name Thomas. The bird could then be partially seen flying through the open glass door before it emerged right beside Kundanmal, prompting an off-camera dog to start barking.
Still seemingly unaware of the feathered guest getting closer and closer, Kundanmal attempted to shush her dog instead, until the sound of Thomas spreading its wings and jumping to a bowl right beside her startled the TikToker and sparked a chain of chaotic events.
The small dog continued to bark as it then appeared to lunge at the bird, who in turn flew to the other side of the room and loudly squawked as Kundanmal could be heard shouting. After the bird flew back outside, Kundanmal, who picked up the device recording the incident, could then be heard slamming the balcony door shout.
The video received over 2.8 million views and over 8,300 comments that appeared to revel in the havoc, as Kundanmal could be seen accidentally knocking over a drink with the head of the guitar, spilling it onto her laptop before fleeing the frame, while an on-screen caption said she started yelling the name of a roommate who hadn't lived there in months.
"All of this. The soundtrack. The suspense. The protagonist. The supporting actor .no part2. MASTERPIECE," one viewer wrote in a top comment that received over 15,100 likes, as many more appeared blown away by how much disarray had unfolded in such a short space of time.
Others appeared mostly concerned with the laptop on the table, which sat in a pool of liquid as the can continued to drip throughout the debacle, with some tagging Apple, inviting them to replace the potentially damaged item after everything the TikToker had been through. Still no word back from Apple, as far as we can see.
