A Cuban in the U.S. faces the challenge of renovating a rundown house in a month, showcasing the process on TikTok. The viral video generates mixed reactions and sparks debate about the immigrant experience.


A Cuban in the United States has taken TikTok by storm after sharing his challenge: to renovate a house in terrible condition in just one month. In the video, which quickly went viral, the dilapidated state of the home is showcased, with a broken floor, a crumbling kitchen, and doors and windows that need to be replaced. "Check this out. This house, the floor, the kitchen... It looks like a witch's house. I have to do it all by myself and I've been given a month. Let's see if I can do it," he says while filming the place.

The challenge has generated all kinds of reactions on TikTok. Some support it and admire the determination, while others doubt whether he can meet the deadline considering the state of the house. "At least they have to pay you $10,000," commented one user. Others are concerned about his safety. "Dude, wear gloves because those carpets are full of bacteria," warned someone. However, the Cuban remains steadfast in his goal.

Amid suggestions, advice, and jokes, many have asked him to document the entire process. "Just leave it recording and then edit it," suggested a user, while another demanded an update: "Dad, we want to see the final result". Although some believe the goal is unattainable, he perseveres, although he acknowledges that he cannot afford to hire help. "I wish I could, but the rents are tough and I have many overdue houses," he explained.

The video has already gathered hundreds of comments and has sparked debate about the effort and ability of immigrants to take on challenges like this. "If anyone can do it, it's a Cuban.", wrote a follower. Others joked about the limited time: "If you keep doing TikTok, I don't think you'll have time," commented someone. Meanwhile, he continues to prepare everything for the transformation.

Many are eagerly awaiting the second part of the video to see the progress, and without a doubt, everyone is looking forward to seeing the final result of the renovation by @papa44646.
