A viral TikTok video that documents one gym goer’s mission to find his stolen Apple AirPods has been viewed over 2.2 million times. It shows a male wearing shorts walking through snow to an unknown location. He arrives at a house and things start unfolding.
“Our AirPods got stolen at Planet Fitness and we tracked the location,” overlay text stated on the video.
In the video, the man knocks on the door and an older woman answers, which instilled “doubt” in the individual who allegedly had his AirPods stolen. He explains to the woman that his earphones were stolen at the local gym and they were traced back to her residence.
Things got interesting when the door shuts and the woman can be audibly heard speaking to someone in the house.
“Then she started talking to her son and I saw him earlier at the gym so I knew we had the right house,” the overlay text said.
Another individual explained to the woman how they located the AirPods, mentioning GPS tracking and how the earphones are connected to their devices. The other individual says he just wants the AirPods back and won’t press charges. They also tell the woman that her son was at Planet Fitness earlier because they saw him.
“We just want them back, we ain’t gonna do nothing, bro,” they tell the individual who allegedly stole them.
The woman can be heard asking an individual inside the house where the AirPods are.
“Don’t worry, he’s gonna get them,” the woman tells them. A moment later, the AirPods are then returned to their rightful owner.
Nearly 3,000 people commented on the video, with many praising the mother for questioning her son and making sure the stolen item was properly returned. Some said that the boy “embarrassed” his mom, and she didn’t let him get away with it.
“Lol the mom was not playing games,” one person said. “She closed that door and told him to go get them headphones.” Another user mentioned how idiotic it is to steal Apple products because all of them can be tracked to the original owner.
