Dad Brings Daughter Meals in Isolation in Hilarious Protective Outfits
As many of us know, isolating due to COVID-19 can be lonely and boring.
However, one woman's time in her bedroom was made much easier by her dad's amusing methods of delivering her meals.
In a clip that was shared to TikTok by Australia-based Molly Bird, we can see her father standing in the garden wearing a motorcycle helmet.
He then approaches her room and puts a drink on the window sill.
Text overlaying the footage, which has gone viral with more than 4.4 million views, reads: "How my dad delivered me food through isolation."
What then follows is a video montage of the various makeshift protective outfits her father wore in order to give Bird food.
These include putting a traffic cone on his head and a napkin over his face, making a suit out of cardboard boxes complete with eye holes, using a pan lid as a mask and carrying an umbrella which was covered in a plastic sheet.
At one point the creative dad even delivered a plate on the end of a garden rake to avoid catching the infectious disease.
