Laughter as Woman Explains 'Unfortunate' Item Found in Bedroom to Family

Social media has been left in stitches by a content creator who was forced to explain to her family why there's a very unexpected item in her bedroom—but it's not what it looks like.

TikTok user Hannah Sunday (@hannah_sunday_) posted a hilarious video revealing that her family paid a visit to her home in Florida, but she'd made a glaring mistake by not putting one particular item away. In the corner of her bedroom, her family spotted the tripod she used to film her TikTok videos and it led to a very awkward explanation.

Sunday films many of her social media videos from her bedroom, including hair and makeup content, and tutorials about how to make the bed. She explained to Newsweek that she uses the tripod so much that she "never [gives] it a second thought," but that didn't stop her family from asking questions.

"As a content creator, the tripod has just become part of my daily life, but I'll definitely be more careful from now on after this unfortunate situation," Sunday said.

The TikToker tried to save her blushes by explaining that the tripod was left there as she'd been filming a video about how she makes her bed, but she isn't too sure if she managed to convince them that it hadn't been used to film any other activities in her bedroom.

Since the hilarious video was posted on April 26, it's generated an incredible amount of attention, leading to more than 2.6 million views and 304,500 likes on TikTok. It's certainly a far cry from Sunday's regular social media content, but her embarrassing mistake has left the internet in fits of laughter.

Alongside the clip, the caption jokes: "I think my grandmother removed me from her will after this."

Sunday has since delighted her followers by posting several videos of how she makes the bed each morning, just in case there were any doubters. She even joked that she noticed a huge uptick in views on her homemaking content because TikTokers wanted "to verify" that she was indeed using her tripod to film those videos "and not for anything else."

On a positive note, she's loved connecting with other influencers who have experienced something similar.

Sunday told Newsweek: "The response on social media has been really funny. It has been so funny to see how many other content creators have made this mistake at some point as well, and all I can do is laugh about it."

Needless to say, lesson learned for Sunday: never film a TikTok before family come over.

With over 290 comments on the TikTok post at the time of writing, many people found her situation incredibly relatable having also neglected to put tripods away.

One comment reads: "Sometimes I forget it in my apartment pointed at my bed and I wonder what my neighbors think of me."

Another person wrote: "I have a Ring camera in my room for my dog and my parents made a comment how it's directly facing my bed I'm like welllllll."

Others praised Sunday for the important life lesson, as one TikToker responded: "Hahaha a reminder to keep tripod hidden when family visits."
