A funeral at a local cemetery turned unexpectedly cheerful when three guys were seen vibing hard during the service.

The video, shared by TikTok user @tuladiesafrika, showed the trio fully immersed in the gospel trumpet music, hands raised high, laughing, and exchanging brotherly handshakes in what looked more like a celebration than mourning.

The men turn a funeral into a celebration

The video takes place during the burial of an alleged loan shark named Dragon, where most people around the graveyard are visibly grieving, but not these three gents. They are posted up, smiling and looking like they’re at a Sunday groove, while trumpets blare in the background. It's a full-on vibe; gospel music, rhythm, and all.

One of the guys even throws up his hand like he’s praising, but the joy on their faces tells a different story. The contrast is wild, on one side, people are sad-looking, while on the other, there are handshakes and wide grins.

Others said they loved how carefree they were, calling them legends

Mzansi debates the gent's behaviour

The clip gained massive views, likes, and comments from social media users who were in stitches. Many commented, saying that the men probably owed the deceased, and now they were finally free, which explained the celebration. Some viewers shared they'd act the same if their loan sharks passed before they could pay them.

Others, however, gave a funny warning, saying receipts don't die, and joked that the loan shark might show up in dreams with an invoice, and some said the family would collect on the money on behalf of the deceased.
