A moment of panic for one Kia Sorento owner turned into a viral sensation and a heartwarming gesture from a well-known thermos company.
Danielle, the owner of the destroyed Kia Sorento, posted a video on TikTok showcasing her car’s charred remains. In the video, she reached for her trusty Stanley thermos, which was still intact in the cup holder. With a hint of sarcasm, she asked, “Everybody’s so concerned about if the Stanley spills, but what about if it melts?”
To everyone’s surprise, the thermos not only survived the fiery blaze but also still had ice inside. Danielle shook the cup, and the sound of ice swishing around could be heard. The video went viral, gaining over a million views and thousands of comments.
Many users suggested that the Stanley company should do something for Danielle, as her video served as a free advertisement for the brand. Some commented, “This is the only advertising Stanley needs,” while others admitted that they still didn’t understand the “Stanley hype” until now.
Taking notice of the viral video, Stanley President Terence Reilly responded with a heartfelt message to Danielle, “We’ve all seen your video. Wow, what an ordeal, and we’re all really glad you’re safe.” He acknowledged the requests for free Stanley products but surprised everyone with an even bigger gesture.
Reilly announced that not only will they send Danielle some free Stanleys, but they also want to replace her destroyed vehicle. “We’ve never done this before, and we’ll probably never do it again, but we’d love to replace your vehicle,” he said.
The news sparked even more excitement among supporters, with comments flooding in, saying things like “STANLEY IS GONNA REPLACE YOUR CAR OMGGGGG.” The unexpected and heartwarming gesture from the Stanley company not only proved the quality of their products but also the genuine care they have for their customers.
The post gained even more traction, with news outlets picking up on the heartwarming story. The Stanley company’s act of kindness and their willingness to go above and beyond for their customers reflects positively on their brand and has garnered even more support from people.
After the video went viral, Danielle expressed her gratitude and shock, stating that she never expected this kind of response from the company. She also expressed her thanks to everyone who showed support and shared her video.
In a time where negative news dominates the media, this heartwarming story serves as a reminder that good things still happen, and there are still companies that genuinely care about their customers. The Stanley company’s gesture has not only made an impact on Danielle’s life but also on the many people who have seen the viral video. It proves that sometimes, a little act of kindness can go a long way and make a big difference.
