Local TikTok users are gushing over a cheerful five-year-old girl who spontaneously waved to Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) paramedics and their patient, who looked like they were about to board an ambulance.
In a TikTok video posted on @urdaddy.naem on April 25, the girl is seen on the rear seat of a bicycle in sunglasses, chatting to the cyclist.
Six seconds into the video, the girl looks ahead and waves, and the video transitions to show three SCDF paramedics and one male patient on a stretcher. The paramedics appeared both surprised and amused, and one returned the wave.
“I said hello to the doctors,” the girl said in the video, which was cheekily captioned “kids really will wave at anyone”.

Speaking to Stomp, the 42-year-old father-of-two behind the video, who only wanted to be known as Naem, said the incident had happened earlier in the week while he was fetching his daughter Sophie from school.

“She’s become quite the little social butterfly, always waving and greeting people we pass with a cheerful ‘hello’ or ‘good morning’,” said Naem.
