Street Performer Gets Instant Dose Of Good Karma After Giving Hungry Homeless Man Money

One good deed deserves another.

Such was certainly the case for singer Liv Harland, who's generosity was rewarded after she stopped mid-song while busking to help a homeless man.


The touching encounter, which took place in the city centre of Manchester, England was recorded and added to Harland's TikTok page, @livharlandmusic.

Is this good karma or what??..😱 #fypシ #livharland #busker #homelessman #kind #karma #singer

With the caption reading "Is this good Karma or what?", the video began with Harland singing while a text overlay brought the viewer's attention to something happening right next to Harland.

"So I was singing and if you look to the left of me, I saw a man getting chicken nuggets out of the bin!!!"

Unable to ignore the man was likely about to eat food he had just plucked from the garbage, Harland stopped singing and approached the man, and once more an overlay described what happened next.

"I said to him, if I gave him money to get fresh ones, would he..."

Harland then headed back to her donation bin, taking out some cash to give to the man.

Viewers could just make out Harland sharply speaking to the homeless man saying "Promise me you'll get fresh ones", which was also written in the overlay.

The grateful man could be seen clearly acknowledging his gratitude to Harland, with "Thank you lovely" appearing in the overlay on screen.

The video continued with Harland seamlessly returning to her song, when a young man appeared, dropping cash in Harland's donation bin.

Harland revealed in the overlay the amount the young man donated was not at all insubstantial:

"A kind man gave me double what I gave the man."
"Good Karma I say!!"

The heartwarming video has since received over 15 million views, and 3 million likes.

Its popularity prompted Harland to subsequently post the livestream footage of the sweet and selfless encounter to her TikTok page, giving viewers a slightly more up close and personal account.

Included among those touched by her giving nature, was Harland's mother.

Some eagle eyed viewers of the video noticed the generous benefactor at the video's end could also be seen watching Harland at the beginning of the video.

Further evidence Harland's kindness did not go unnoticed, and she was rewarded for paying it forward.

Though there was one comment which likely summed up this video, and Harland's actions, to a tee.

"Sharing will not make you poorer."

'Wuthering Heights' Film Casting Director Irks Fans After Justifying Casting Decisions By Claiming 'It's Just A Book'

It was recently announced that Wuthering Heights, the 1847 novel by Emily Brontë, is being adapted for the screen at Warner Bros. Pictures. The leading director is Emerald Fennell, and the casting director is Kharmel Cochrane, who was involved in the award-winning Nosferatu and Saltburn.

For those who got through high school and college without having to read the novel, it's a dark, psychological thriller with Gothic horror undertones—and also a love story. That's the power of Emily Brontë, who published just one novel in her lifetime.

Lindsey Graham Sparks Fury After Suggesting That Trump Could Be The Next Pope

After President Donald Trump jokingly told reporters that he'd "like to be pope" following the death of Pope Francis, South Carolina Republican Senator Lindsey Graham threw himself behind Trump's remarks, which came after Trump already raised the ire of critics for seemingly falling asleep at the Pope's funeral.

Trump said that he himself "would be my number one choice" to be the next pope after he was asked who he’d like to see become the next pontiff. That would never, ever happen—and disrespects the billions of Catholics around the world who are in mourning—but Graham suggested it was a good idea in a post on X.

Trump Bizarrely Clashes With Reporter Over Photoshopped 'Tattoo' On Abrego Garcia's Knuckles

President Donald Trump sparked criticism after claiming during an interview with ABC News’ Terry Moran that an edited photo depicting tattoos of wrongly-deported Maryland father Kilmar Abrego Garcia showed that he has an alleged connection to the MS-13 gang.

Abrego Garcia, a Salvadoran national who arrived in the U.S. in 2012, was labeled a threat in 2019 due to an alleged connection to MS-13. He spent months in detention before an immigration judge found he had a credible fear of persecution—not from MS-13, but from a rival group, Barrio 18, which he said had been extorting his family.
