A Cuban woman has gone viral on TikTok after starring in a scene that is both dangerous and hilarious at a gas station in the United States. In the video, shared on the account @nore.yero, the woman is seen filling plastic water bottles with gasoline while her friend records her, laughing.

“Oh my God, just leave it like that, she thinks that with that she's going to get to Chicago. Honey, just stop it already, there are two dollars left,” we hear the person filming say, while the protagonist insists on collecting the leftover fuel from the refueling.

In the images, he is seen holding the nozzle of the pump and filling several plastic containers with gasoline, which he then carefully stores in the trunk of the car alongside his suitcases.

The scene featuring the Cuban women has sparked a wave of comments among Cuban users, who, amid laughter and warnings, have reacted to the unusual moment.

“They are from Pinar del Río, right? How dangerous, and for them, it's just a game,” wrote one user, while another commented, “If they knew about static electricity, they wouldn't do that.”

Others pointed out the risk of storing fuel in containers not designed for that purpose: “Those bottles can't withstand pressure; they could explode at any moment.”

Most agreed on the humor and recklessness of the scene. “A little bit every three blocks, come on, we can do it,” joked another commentator. However, many warned about the real danger of handling gasoline in that manner, especially so close to the vehicle's exhaust.

The video, which has amassed thousands of views and laughter, reflects the blend of wit and carelessness that characterizes many of these viral moments featuring Cubans both on and off the island.
