Ah, the beach. Is there any better place for people watching? All the peacocks come out to show off their feathers, dramas will play out in the sand, memories will be made, and sand will get absolutely everywhere.
One thing you can count on when you go to the beach on a hot day is that lots of people will be there, and lots will be happening.
Sure, some folks just want to soak up the rays in the sand, but plenty of others will be frolicking in the surf.

And then there’s this model, who took the opportunity of a nice day to try to get a fun, spicy photo shoot in.
And at first, it was all going according to plan!
She was working it for the camera, having a great time by all appearances. But she wasn’t the only person on the beach that day, and she wasn’t the only one enjoying herself.
Because this guy, wonderfully oblivious to the bikini model posing for the video camera, strolled into the frame and stole the show.
As photobombs go, it was a master class. It’s not shocking that the video, posted on Twitter by @sgroi_carmelo, has gone viral, with more than 19 million views. This guy has star appeal.
Just look at the smile on his face!
And it’s not for her, either — he’s just having a great day, and folks online loved him for it. “He’s so happy with himself,” wrote @chirpykook .
“It’s nice to see him, he looks so very happy,” wrote @rvngthll .
It’s easy to see why he was an instant hit — he’s just joyful and relatable.
Strutting your stuff in prime, plum smuggling style with a big ol’ smile on your face is peak confidence. “That guy is my spirit animal,” wrote @JasonSpellman .
“Best supporting actor in a meme goes to this guy,” wrote @genienos .
Of course, the model goes about her business, unaware that her scene is being stolen.
And before you know it, he’s gone, as fleeting and majestic as an eclipse. We don’t get to know who he is — or who she is, for that matter — or where or when the footage was taken. It’s all a mystery.
Carmelo simply uploaded the video without comment.
And even without any context, he found an audience, garnering more than 15,000 retweets and 80,000 likes so far.
