The following scenario sounds a turn like a recurring incubus I have — where I ’m back in high-pitched school and there ’s suddenly a major test I somehow completely miscarry to consider for — except this is real life : A TikTokerrecently misread the sentence of his outside trajectory and discovered his error just over an minute before takeoff .
Most of us in the above place would probably just give up after letting out a primal wow , but in a viral video recording posted to the social platform late last week , Kevin Droniak , a TikToker in all likelihood most famous for assist to bringhis grandmother ’s no - holds - blockade perspective on lifeto the existence , got originative instead .

According to Droniak , he made it to the airdrome with a half hr to go before doors close . The TikTok ’s final shots show Droniak boardinghis Norse flightto London Gatwick .
" I made it , " Droniak says , fan himself with his passport from his aeroplane rear end .
The video depicting this feat has gotten about 6 million views and over 650,000 like as of this writing , and commenters were impressed not only by the accomplishment itself , but also by Droniak ’s equanimity while carrying it out .
