Dads are always going to be dads. Age and nationality are of no consequence. A 21-year-old dad does the same thing as a 50-year-old dad, no matter where they live.

Walking up to this crowd of men would be a curious sight. They are all standing in some form of typical “dad stance.” Their attention is riveted on something happening outside the window wall. Some are engaged in conversation. This is dad life at its finest.
As the person recording pans out to see what all these dads share an appreciation of, all of life falls neatly into place.
And there it is — an aircraft mechanic repairing a flat tire on the landing gear. The answer to the age-old question, “How do you keep a group of men from complaining about flight delays?” Give them a show that is better than anything they might find scrolling their phones.

Jeff Clinard made the original post. He’s a dad, and he totally understands dad life. The videos on his TikTok page offer a humorous look into dad life. He discusses lying as the one intolerable act in his house, with a hysterically accurate list of dad lies. He looks at what it is like to wander around the house picking up after your kids. Jeff has a realistic outlook on dad life. You can follow him on TikTok for more laughs.
