A woman showed how someone's party balloon floated away. Worst of all, there was money inside.

Mbaleigh Masango took to her TikTok account (@mbaleighmasango) to show internet users how the unfortunate incident occurred. The video showed a woman opening a car's door behind the driver's side of the vehicle. She takes out a cake and hands it to a girl who walks away, then reaches for the helium balloons on the backseat.

A third person, wearing a hoodie and purple jacket, walks to the woman who allows them to remove the balloons from the car. However, the person was not quick enough to grab the strings attached to the three balloons (two purple and one see-through balloon storing a few Mandela-branded notes).

Mbaleigh wrote in her post's caption:

"The party ended before it even started. I hope it lands near those in need.
"'God doesn’t give with both hands,' so they say."

Father surprises son with money for his birthday

In a related article, Briefly News reported about a man who filmed his teenage son excitedly unwrapping his birthday gift in the kitchen.

The elaborate packaging of the gift included a little white box underneath a golden balloon with the words "Happy Birthday Nathi 14" written on it. The balloon was also wrapped beautifully in a black string. As soon as Nathi untied the string around the balloon, it shot straight up to the ceiling, unveiling a few money bills.
