We all know that 5-Minute Crafts videos are absolutely bonkers.

The company produce, arguably, some of the most non-sensical and unrealistic ~hacks~ ever seen on the internet. I mean, how can anyone forget the time they slapped a zipper and wheels onto a plastic water container and called it a suitcase?

How about when they made “shoes” out of hot glue by literally tracing a pair of shoes that already existed? Or the iconic video where they hammered out a spoon instead of just, I don’t know, turning it around the right way up? Incredible stuff, really.

But look, it’s working for them. On YouTube alone, 5-Minute Crafts boasts a whopping 67 million followers, with another 63 million on Facebook. And I’ll give it to them, in their giant 10+ minute craft compilations they do sometimes have a couple useful tips and tricks the average person could use.

However, these videos aren’t really meant for the average person anyway. The bright colours, clickbait thumbnails and DIY-heavy content really targets itself to crafty kids. But thanks to one viral TikTok account, it looks like not even kids are enjoying this content anymore.

An anonymous child has actually gone viral after creating an account dedicated to dragging 5-Minute Crafts called @5miniutestoopid. Absolutely fed up with “5-Minute Crafts’ fucking bullshit”, the anonymous kid goes in on on the actress who uses lipstick as hair dye and glues hair extensions to hats.

Now, while the girl honestly sounds no older than about seven, there’s no real proof that she’s a child. But going by the voice, the way she spelled “5 Miniute” and “stoopid”, and her use of the work “frick”, one can only assume she’s pretty young.

Regardless of her age, her savage drags against the company’s hacks have left the internet in stitches and wondering who this mystery child is. Since blowing up, @5miniutestoopid has said that she will only reveal herself and main account once she hits one million followers. Unfortunately for us, she’s only at about 190,000 so far.

Until we get the reveal, please enjoy her other 5-Minute Craft commentary:
