An Afrikaner man showed how chilled and safe his new area in the US was, and it left viewers both jealous and amazed.

The clip was posted by TikTok user @mzansitvlive, gaining massive views and comments from online users who debated the lifestyle differences between Mzansi and the States.

Buying eggs in pure peace

In the video, the man has just stepped out of his car and walks to a fridge outside a farmhouse. He proudly talks about the modern way of life where everything works on honesty and no fear. He moves toward the fridge outside someone's house, drops $4 into the money box, takes his eggs, and shows off the peaceful farm vibe.

He pans over his neighbourhood, pointing out how beautiful and quiet everything is. He even giggles at the sound of hens clucking nearby, saying it’s the kind of peace he enjoys most.

Mzansi reacts to the good life

In the comments, social media users were mostly happy for him, saying he was living the kind of soft life many dreamt about. The calm, no-fuss transaction and the outdoor fridge had everyone talking about the contrast to life back home.

Some, however, couldn’t ignore that the price tag-$3.50 for a dozen eggs-turned out to be over R60, and that shocked a few followers. Still, the vibe of honesty and quiet living won most people over.

"Nah, like I was saying on the other video. If this were in SA, they would take the fridge, the money, the eggs and the chickens, and farm 🤣."

User @pkhunou commented:

"You are now Amerikaners🤣."

"If you leave money like that in South Africa, it will be gone in seconds."

User @Ishmael Mpeka added:

"In the deep rural areas of South Africa, we are still using this method. Nothing special here except the high price."

User @jiga added:

"I'm happy for them, no one can let down the opportunity and privilege like that, even those who are laughing, once that kind of opportunity knocks on their doorstep. They will grab it with two hands."

User @THEO WINEPRESS shared:

"So safe."
