An American woman had the shock of her life after finding a naked man in the back of her car who claimed he was "the son of the pope".
Bethany Coker posted the alarming incident on her TikTok after having initially been alerted to the presence of someone in her car two days earlier.
On that occasion, the interior was decorated in mud with no obvious source.
She said: "My car was home all night while we were out wheeling til 2am and I started it up this morning not paying attention, only to come back to get in it, and notice the MUD."
On the video, she said: "On today's episode of WTF. It looks like someone rolled around in the mud and slept in my car."
Two days later things would get weirder when Bethany found the source of the mess, the mud angel himself, asleep and very naked in the boot of her car.
She said: "It’s currently Tuesday. Guess I found out where the mud came from."
When she asked why the man was cowering in her trunk, he replied: "It's a right of passage, I'm the son of the pope."
Which, in fairness, is as good an excuse as any.

When the police finally arrived and asked the pope's son to put his pants on, an officer revealed to Bethany that it was in their "whole career, I’ve never come across anything like that".
Bethany later revealed that the man was wanted from a psych unit and had been taken back to the centre.
Naturally her video's left many users with a lot of questions.
One user said: "How are you gonna treat the son of the pope like that?"
Another said: "I need far more information than I've been given."
"How did he survive chilling in a trunk for 3 days?" questioned another. How indeed.
