@Samdracott_Farrier's ASMR content showed him expertly removing a horseshoe from a horse. 

Sam Dracott was filmed in the oddly satisfying footage cleaning up one of his horse's hooves.

He told Sky News: 'It's an amazing and surreal feeling that a video of me doing my day-to-day work has accumulated over 270 million views.

'Farriery is a trade that has gone on for hundreds of years, so it's really incredible that people are so interested in a video of me shoeing a horse.

'I receive a lot of messages asking how I got into my trade, how can someone become a farrier, what qualifications I took. 

'It's a very physical profession that requires a lot of skill and patience to master the craft, but equally the most satisfying and rewarding job.'

Many commented on the horse's reaction, with one person writing: 'Horse be like: I got my nails done.'

The mother-of-two had to be put into an induced coma and was on life support for 10 days.

VIEWS: 195million

Using spray-paint, the worker impressively creates the signage by going over extremely faded markings from a previous sign.

Social media users rushed to comment on the video, with one person simply stating: 'One sneeze would ruin everything.'

Another individual wrote: 'Dang I wish I could have that stable hand,' while a third said: 'Wow, so talented.'

This is an adorable story of how a young barista Sophie asked out a customer in the cutest way possible. 

The Student from Edinburgh University had been serving the tall dark stranger for months and then one day decided to take the plunge. 

As she always decorated his latte with artwork she wrote into one 'ur cute', then hid behind the counter as she watched him snap a photo of the coffee. 

Sophie was shaking as she served the coffee, however, she needn't have worried as it worked. 

In her next video he had given her his number and revealed that he had been taking photos of every coffee she had ever served him. 

They have now been together for several months are loved up.  

Here, a woman becomes a TikTok star thanks to her VERY funny impressions of Love Island stars with 'spot on' mannerisms and accents - and even Laura Whitmore is a fan!

And a baker wows with her recipe for decadent Oreo cheesecake bars - and you only need FOUR ingredients.

While a 'tacky' bride is slammed for demanding guests pay for their own meals at her wedding where ‘monetary gifts are preferred’.
