TikTok celebrity Nathan Triska is going viral after claiming he found a hidden camera nestled in the showerhead of his AirBnB — and commenters are mortified.
AirBnBs have become a popular alternative to hotels, as they often offer an entire house and other amenities for travelers instead of a single room or suite.
However, plenty of globetrotters have expressed their concerns with AirBnBs over the past few years — mainly, that some owners ask their clients to do chores or even add on extra fees.
One AirBnB customer, though, was left horrified after discovering something especially unsavory in his lodgings… and it’s going viral.
Nathan Triska is a TikTok star with over 10 million followers on the platform who often shares snippets of his day-to-day life with his viewers.
Those viewers were left with their jaws on the floor after he claimed to have found a camera hidden in the showerhead at his AirBnB.
“I cannot make this up,” a panicked Triska began in a TikTok video uploaded on June 20. “I’m at an AirBnB, and I just hopped out of the shower so fast, because watch. Look at this.”
Triska brought his phone camera up close to the showerhead, which showed a blinking blue light inside the mechanism.

Some commenters suggested that the showerhead could have been a broken model that changed color in the past, but Triska claims he’s stayed at this particular AirBnB before and never noticed it.

He also claimed that he tried to break open the showerhead to no avail.
Triska uploaded a part two to his original video, which has garnered over 3.5 million views at the time of writing. In the clip, he says that he attempted to contact the owner, but got no response.
He then claimed that he was “disconnected” from the owner’s “communication network” before receiving a threatening text from a random number that said he would “regret posting that to TikTok.”
That’s not all; he also claims that one of his car tires was slashed amidst these events, alongside cracking the rim of the tire.
“Moral of the story: Be very careful where you stay and who you stay with.”

It’s unclear what’s next for Triska, but commenters are offering advice to the TikToker in light of his latest video, telling him to get a lawyer and even contact law enforcement.
This isn’t the first time a traveler has purportedly found a hidden camera in their AirBnB; recently, police responded to claims that another customer had purportedly found cameras in the residence, but ultimately “did not find any hidden or undisclosed cameras.”
