Viral TikTok shows FedEx driver throwing package at house from moving van

A clip that appears to show a FedEx driver throwing a box at someone’s porch - without stopping the delivery van - has gone viral on TikTok.

Uploaded by Rachel Porter, the clip, which appears to have been captured via a doorbell camera, shows a FedEx van slow down before a box is flung towards the porch.

Since it was uploaded six days ago the video has received over 1.1 million views, almost 200,000 likes, and 1,800 comments.

Commenting, one viewer quipped: “His previous job was delivering newspapers. Old habits…”

“He’s definitely behind schedule,” another joked.

Others couldn’t believe his accuracy, with one remarking: “That’s actually impressive”.

A FedEx spokesperson told Indy100: “The behaviour depicted in the video is unacceptable and inconsistent with the professionalism FedEx couriers and service providers demonstrate every day in safely and securely delivering millions of packages to our customers.

“We are committed to treating our customers’ shipments with the utmost care and will take the appropriate steps to address this matter.”

Although this particular delivery perhaps wasn’t ideal, at Indy100 we’ve also written about plenty of delivery drivers who have gone out of their way to make a customer happy.

An Amazon driver previously went viral for following delivery instructions to a T after peeping that the customer’s doormat reads: “Please hide packages from husband”.

Hilariously in a clip featuring the same doormat at a different home, a delivery driver pretended to be a preacher when the husband answered the door.

Earlier this month, an UberEats driver warmed hearts by including a handwritten card and poem with a food delivery.
