An Afrikaner man had his braai interrupted when his pet emu tried to steal his meat off the grill. However, the bird's actions aren't what startled social media users, but more so, who it was named after.
On 20 September, 2025, TikTok user @geduldauction, a parrot rescuer, shared on his account that he was braaing sausages. While one half of the casing was filled with pap, the other half was stuffed with mince. He also had normal sausages on the grill, which the emu attempted to take as a snack.
Apart from the emu, the Afrikaner also had a donkey and panned his camera to the animal behind him. When he turned back to the grill, the emu was still on a mission to grab the food and went for the pap and wors. For both attempts, the food fell on the floor, but that didn't stop the man from putting it back on the heat.
After the second try, the man shouted at the emu:

"Hitler, move it! No, my pap and wors. Move!"

A flabbergasted @star_girl21_5 asked under the man's post:
"Come again, what's his name?"
@justin_g_lakey was stunned and shared:
"You named it that out of all the names in the world."
@_justtnic told members of the online community:
"I don’t know what shook me more, his name, the fact you put the food back or the nasty looking pap and wors sausage."
@weedwh0re23 wrote in the comment section:
"I swear this is the type of things that happen when you visit your Afrikaans friends, then no one believes you."
After watching the video, @chreechreedoyouloveme said to people on the internet:
"This is my daily reminder to not eat at other people’s houses."
@s.eluh joked in the comments:
"This is how the rest of the world describes Africa. The whole time, this is his original experience."
@faye_nfk jokingly referred to what Donald Trump said about the country after being misinformed about a white genocide, writing:
"Maybe terrible things really are happening in South Africa, hey."
