A customer asked for no knocking or doorbell ringing. So, the DoorDash driver got creative: ‘That’s an MVP right there’

He activated stealth mode.

A DoorDash delivery appeared to turn into a quiet, exaggerated sneak-in after a customer posted a request not to knock or ring the bell. Aurora Juliette, who posts on TikTok as @ajstrangee, shared a Nest doorbell clip that showed the driver setting the order down and then leaving in a high-knee tiptoe.

On-screen text in the video read, “Please do not knock or ring doorbell. Dog will bark and baby will scream.” A second overlay read, “LOLLL.” The porch in the static shot included a blue kiddie pool and a doormat.

Juliette wrote in the caption that “@WICKEDBARIII was my dasher and he 10000% understood that assignment!!” She added, “YES YALL I DID TIP HIM BEFORE AND MORE AFTER DELIVERY. Chill out in my comments lmao.” The clip drew 6.9 million views, 1.7 million likes, and 26,400 comments.

Viewers asked how to tip the driver after the quiet drop-off

In the doorbell footage, the driver identified in the caption as @WICKEDBARIII walked up the driveway in a black T-shirt and dark track pants with white stripes. He appeared to crouch and place the package on the ground next to the door. He then looked at the camera and gave a thumbs-up.

After the drop-off, he turned and appeared to run back toward his car with his knees lifted high, in what looked like an exaggerated tiptoe. The clip showed him reaching the car, getting in, and driving away.

Juliette later posted a TikTok stitch aimed at people who had asked how to send the driver money. In that clip, the opening doorbell segment showed a man in a black hoodie, black track pants with white stripes, and black sneakers walking up while looking at a phone, then turning back toward a silver SUV, with a package and the blue kiddie pool still on the porch. On-screen text again read, “LOLLL.”

She said in the stitch that she could not answer every comment on the original video because there were too many. She told viewers who wanted his Cash App or Venmo that they could send something, and said she would tag him.

Juliette said she could not edit the first video’s caption again that day because she had already edited it once. She said, “Apparently you can only do that once a day.” She added that she did not know that before.

She said his Cash App was in his bio and that she did not know whether he also had Venmo. The stitch caption read, “#stitch with @Aurora Juliette @WICKEDBARIII is the dasher!! His cashapp is in the bio!!” The delivery world has its share of memorable driver-customer encounters, such as when a woman orders DoorDash delivery and finds a driver lurking on the porch to confront her over a 0 tip.

In a later photo on TikTok captioned “Commented on @Aurora Juliette’s post,” a text graphic read, “YALL! I cant respond to everybody. YES we found him. YES he’s cool with it. His account is @WICKEDBARIII and YES I did tip him. YES I tipped more after delivery. There were a lot of comments asking for his info so they could send him something too.”

Viewers praised the quiet drop-off in the comments, with one writing, “That’s an MVP right there.” Another wrote, “hope you tipped cuz he toed.” A third commenter wrote, “He definitely has a mom who don’t play.”

One wrote, “A+ 5 stars would recommend!!!!” Another wrote, “But seriously, with the amount of inconsiderate people these days this was amazing!! He deserves ALLLLL the tips!!” A further commenter asked, “Is there any way any of the rest of us can tip him extra on behave of women with kids and dogs everywhere???” The quiet drop-off won praise online, though tipping disputes are common, as one woman says a DoorDash driver insisted her $20 tip was not enough.
