On Sunday, a tanker caught fire under I-95 in Philadelphia causing part of the overpass to collapse.
And while the the event in itself was quite newsworthy, a local man's interview with FOX 29 about the incident is what took the internet by storm.
Not even Governor Josh Shapiro's tweet about the incident drew as much interest.
The "neighbor in NE Philly" described his reaction when he found out about the nearby collapse in the most Philly of accents, explaining:
"Dude, so I was passed out and I woke up to nothing but text messages, phone calls... I had no idea what was going on."
"I got dressed, I came out, I looked down, I smell like a smokey smell, and I'm like damn, dude, so..."
You can watch the interview in all its viral glory below.
People on social media immediately became obsessed, with locals noting the dialect is spot-on classic NE Philly.
Not gonna lie, we'd like all of our news delivered by this guy.
