Ahhh, camping.
The nature-lover's way to unplug, get outside, breathe fresh air and become one with the elements.
That is, of course, unless your tent catches a breeze and takes flight into the vast, open sky.
Then you're in for a different kind of adventure.
That's exactly what happened to TikToker @katiebugg who shared a hilarious video showing her tent flying away like a UFO over the lush greenery of west Washington state.
Her viral TikTok began innocently enough, with a photo of the tent against the mountains in the background and text reading:
"let's go camping it'll be relaxing."
The video then cuts to footage of the tent drifting away over the treetops.
Thankfully, the TikToker noted in the caption that she and her boyfriend were able to find it after "a couple hours of bushwacking."
You can watch below.
People in the comments were incredibly entertained and likened the floating tent to a "fairy" and "UFO."

A few commented on the audacity of the tent to "mock" them.

And several mentioned the TikToker needs to invest in some tent stakes for the next trip...

But the creator revealed that the video was taken as the couple was packing up and had just removed the stakes.

Another video posted by the TikToker's boyfriend, Isaiah, showed where the tent finally landed.
He captioned the TikTok:
"Eventually we found it safe and sound, shoutout REI 😅
The original video has been played more than 21 million times, and we're quite certain campers on TikTok are making a mental note to not leave their tents unsupervised for even a second!
