So, there’s this woman, right? She hit the viral jackpot after catching her boyfriend in the act while she took a quick snooze in the car.
On May 29, Hugrun Hannesdottir, who’s 27 and originally from Iceland but now living in the U.S., shared a TikTok video clip. The video shows her waking up in a dark car and revealing, “I went napping, and I just woke up. And my boyfriend did this.” Cue the suspenseful moment!
As the camera pans, we see the dashboard screen displaying a cute cartoon dog and a reassuring message: “My driver will be back soon. Don’t worry! The heater is on and it’s 70 degrees F.”
What’s the kicker? Hannesdottir exclaims, “He put me on dog mode,” before drifting back into dreamland. Unbelievably, the video skyrocketed with 3.7 million views and 900,000 likes.
“Dog mode” is a feature in Tesla cars that ensures pets left inside are safe and comfy, visible to passersby.
Imagine this: in hot summer weather, a car at 70°F can shoot up to 100°F in just 20 minutes, warns the American Kennel Club. And in winter, poor insulation could spell hypothermia or frostbite for pets left inside a car.
In the video’s comments, Hannesdottir spilled the beans that they were cruising in a Tesla, a company at the forefront of championing “dog mode.”
And the plot thickens! She woke up in a CVS parking lot only to notice the screen displaying a dog, revealing her boyfriend’s thoughtful gesture.
Hannesdottir revealed that Andrason, who’s 30, is “quite the sweetheart.” They had hit up CVS to grab a new battery for her car keys that had ditched her earlier that day.
The TikTok world went bananas over the clip. Over 1,000 viewers showered the couple with praise.
One dubbed Andrason a “green flag,” another declared him “husband material.”
One commenter even guessed that Andrason was likely chuckling to himself as he set up the prank.
And the accolades kept coming. “THIS is how I ask to be treated in a relationship,” one user gushed.
And another added, “Looks like you had the best nap of your life tho!” Ain’t that the truth!
Hannesdottir shared that the video going viral on her account @zacperian has been nothing short of surreal. She said, “It cracked me up, and I’m thrilled it brought a smile to others as well.”
