Parking is a great art, especially when the gap is not particularly wide.
In the USA, a man showed a lot of precision, which the man next to him didn't like.
Finding a parking space by car can be a real test of patience.
Either there is no free space or you are only allowed to stand there for a certain amount of time with (a correctly set) parking disc.
In Germany, drivers can park for free for a short time in some places thanks to the so-called bread button.
But this only helps to a limited extent if the person next to you is parking particularly tightly.
This has now happened to a man from the USA.
Of course, he captured the whole thing on video and posted it on his TikTok account (greatfulbee).
“This guy parked so close to my car.
Now I can't leave.
He can’t drive away without someone damaging the car,” he says in the short clip.
Cars are only separated by a few centimeters
It says: “I've been waiting for half an hour, what should I do?” The driver of the other car also appears to have asked the TikTok user not to move his vehicle.
“I explained to him that I was going to drive my car away.
And you pay for all the damage because why are you parking so close?”
There isn't much space between the two cars.

But the driver of the other car had a good answer: "He said that his father was dying of cancer and he was rushing to the hospital," explains greatfulbee in another video that now has more than 1.8 million views.
The first part had almost 20 million views.
TikTok users help with parking
Everything turned out well for the TikToker user.
He got his car out of the hole without any scratches or other damage.
Instead of driving, he put the automatic transmission in neutral and carefully pushed the car out.
A tip that is also given several times in the comments.

In the comments under the videos, the other TikTok users are also amazed by the driver's parking skills.
Others don't understand why greatfulbee is doing this:
“I don’t understand how or why!”
“That’s why I park far away and just walk.”
“Just a beginner wouldn’t get out.
Give me the keys and I’ll drive it out.”
“If it goes in, it goes out.”
“Someone is above the white line.”
