‘How Big Are The Bodies?’: Home Depot Worker Casually Helps Customer Asking About Hiding Corpses — ‘You’re Gonna Have To Choose Something Bigger’
ATLANTA, GA – It’s not every day that a Home Depot employee gets asked for help with a potential “body disposal” scenario, but one worker went viral this week for his shockingly professional reaction when a customer asked how many corpses could fit inside a freezer.
‘Theoretically, If I Had a Couple Bodies…’
In a TikTok video that’s now surpassed 580,000 views, user @jakecherryyy walks into Home Depot and asks a question that would send most people running for security:
“Theoretically, if I had a couple bodies to dispose of, how many do you think would fit in this freezer?”
Rather than panicking, the employee stays perfectly calm — and even starts offering practical advice.

“How big are the bodies?” the worker asks, without hesitation.
When Jake replies that one is 6-foot-1 and the other 5-foot-9, the worker shakes his head, responding:
“Well, sir, this is not gonna work for you because it’s counter-depth. You’re gonna have to choose something else. Probably like a chest freezer.”
‘Wrap Them Up, It’s Gonna Be Messy’
The exchange gets even more absurd when Jake jokes that he might just store the heads in the smaller freezer.
Without missing a beat, the employee replies:
“Well, wrap them up. It’s gonna be messy.”
Jake then pushes the bit even further, asking if the worker knows where he could find shackles.
The employee, still unfazed, casually responds:
“Hardware, aisle 15.”
The two end the conversation with a polite “thank you” and “you’re welcome” — as if they’d just talked about refrigerator specs instead of body storage logistics.
Customer Service at Its “Darkly Finest”
While obviously a joke, many commenters praised the employee’s dedication to customer service, with one user writing:
“When you’re one sale away from hitting your commission bonus.”
Another chimed in:
“He’s on another level of minding his own damn business!!!”
A third added:
“He started throwin’ out suggestions and pro tips.”
Home Depot’s Reputation for ‘Above and Beyond’
Ironically, the viral exchange aligns perfectly with Home Depot’s reputation for helpful employees. Consumer Affairs reviews consistently note that staff are “willing to go above and beyond” to assist shoppers — though most aren’t dealing with imaginary crime scenes.
Still, this viral moment has cemented one truth: no matter the question, Home Depot employees will find you an aisle number.
