Boy pranks Uber driver by speaking non-existent language

Yet another funny TikTok challenge that had internet users laughing as a boy pranks his Uber driver by speaking a language that doesn’t exist.

TikTok creator @s.b_shongwe posted a video on the app of him getting into the e-hailing service and speaking a language he made up. In the video, the Uber driver is seen confused by the boy’s actions and trying his best to understand him. This caused many users to find this video funny as the driver was speaking isiZulu to the boy.

When entering the car the driver greeted the boy and asked if he should proceed with driving, the funny thing is that the driver kept on asking more questions and ended up more confused.

Many TikTok users found the recreation of this video hilarious as the driver was genuinely concerned by the language barrier between him and the boy.

Taking to the comment section TikTok users commended the driver for having so much patience in trying to figure out a way to communicate with the boy:

One user commented: “The fact that you made a Zulu man speak English, Teach me your ways.”

Another user asked if he was speaking spiritual tongues.

Another commenter said: “What’s even funnier is that you forgot what you said after you said it.”

One TikTok user asked the creator how he thought of this idea to recreate the non-existent language prank.
