Teenagers have been slammed for creating a TikTok showing themselves barging into strangers' homes for a viral prank.

The bizarre video shows a teenager and his friends filming themselves entering a family home uninvited - titled ‘Walking into random houses'.

They are seen approaching a London townhouse and walking through the open door.

The female resident, who is brushing the ground near her front entrance, can be heard asking “What are you doing?” as they walk past before calling her partner for assistance, reports My London.

He can be seen leaving the couple’s children downstairs before attempting to get the teenagers out of his home, while one of them makes himself comfortable on the sofa.

The video, posted under the account @secretmizzy, has received significant attention online with several calling for the Met Police to take action.

Other videos on the account show the teenager barging into fast food restaurants and approaching random strangers in the street.

Taking to Twitter, one user wrote: “They’re gonna end up doing this to the wrong home. I’ve got loads of respect for that dad because I would not have been this calm. People need to think before they do these ‘pranks’.”

Another said: “What they did is crazy but it’s even crazier that they proceeded to walk around the house after hearing CHILDREN.”

One person added: “Disgusting and embarrassing.

"The thing that p****s me off the most is that they can hear kids in that house and they STILL went ahead with it.

"Horrendous behaviour, it’s time to get kids these days hobbies unrelated to social media and clout.”

Others described it as “utterly disturbing” while one called it “just embarrassing”.

The Mirror has contacted the Metropolitan Police for a comment.
