A locksmith recently found himself in a frustrating, viral encounter at the Atlanta International Airport. Allen, who goes by the handle The Key GOAT, was called out to help a customer who had accidentally locked their keys inside a car. Instead of a standard service call, he ended up fielding a passenger who was so worried she’d miss her flight that she turned into the bigger hurdle. The resulting video racked up over 45 million views on Instagram and 23 million on TikTok.
The ordeal began before Allen even arrived at the airport. In the video, as Allen drove to the airport, you hear a woman’s voice telling him, “If you’re not here in five minutes, I’m calling someone else. I’m not gonna wait for you here forever.” Allen promised to be there in 10 to 15 minutes. However, the woman immediately interjected, “You have to hurry up because I have a flight.” Allen replied, “Okay, I hear you. Everybody has a flight in the airport. You good!”
