We’ve all had those moments where we say something and immediately wish we could crawl into a hole. Los Angeles-based actor and TikToker Sean Koetting (@seanywanny) recently took to the platform to share one such moment that started from a place of just wanting to help. He was just trying to help a lost woman, but as he explains in his video on TikTok, the next thing he knew, he was talking about a true-crime podcast in the middle of a dark, isolated forest.
The interaction started innocently enough. Koetting said that he was unhooking his bike when a woman approached him, clearly distressed. He recounted that she said, “Hi, do you. Can you help me? I’m lost. I can’t find my car. I’m not from here.” Being the helpful type, Koetting immediately jumped into problem-solving mode. As they walked through the woods, he tried to keep the mood light by chatting with her about where she was from.
