What a surprise a Cuban had when she received a package from Amazon! What was supposed to be a home delivery turned into an unusual moment when a drone from the company dropped her order directly into the pool of her house.
The scene was captured in a 12-second video shared on TikTok by the user @thali_hernandez11, known on the platform as "A little bit of everything. Thalia."
In the images, we see how the Amazon Prime Air drone flies over the house and, instead of dropping the package in a safe area, it releases it over the water. Realizing what was about to happen, the Cuban could not contain her scream: “Not in the pool!”.
But it was already too late. The package ended up in the water, and the unexpected outcome quickly led to an avalanche of reactions on TikTok.
The video surpassed 419,500 views, accumulated over 14,700 likes, around 1,000 comments, and more than 6,600 shares.
As expected, internet users took advantage of the situation to showcase their sense of humor.
"Later they complained that the packages were being thrown, now who are they going to complain to," commented a user. Another joked, "Call support to report an issue with the drone."
There were also those who tried to find the silver lining in the unexpected plunge: "It's better here because when you fall, what you have inside won't break."
And although the scene seems straight out of a comedy, the truth is that this Cuban is not the only one who has experienced a similar ordeal.
In August 2026, Lindsey Austen, a resident of Richmond, Texas, was involved in a similar incident when an Amazon drone dropped her order into the pool. On that occasion, the package contained cat food and shoe insoles.
The video of Austen also circulated widely on TikTok, surpassing 250,000 views. After the experience, the woman expressed her doubts about using this delivery system again.
Drone deliveries are part of the Amazon Prime Air program, through which the company aims to reduce shipping times. Its MK30 model is designed to carry packages weighing up to 2.3 kilograms and make deliveries in approximately 30 minutes.
The service continues to expand in the United States. In August, TechCrunch reported on Amazon's plans to extend its drone deliveries to nearly 500 additional cities.
This isn't the first time an Amazon delivery has featured in a viral video related to Cubans in the United States. In October, a Cuban delivery person sparked laughter on social media by throwing a package in front of a door and warning, "If it's broken, call Amazon."
For now, the Cuban in the new video has managed to elicit more than one laugh from users with her spontaneous reaction. What hasn’t been revealed is what the package contained or whether she was able to retrieve her order in good condition after the unexpected shower.
