Serial killers? Drugs? Money laundering? Just some of the wild theories a Vancouver Island couple have been sent by the general public after they made a rather strange, but cuddly discovery hidden in the walls of their home.

Pulling back pieces of drywall in the garage at their new home near Spectacle Lake, Connor Nijsse and Brianne Hinkkuri found instead of insulation, 115 stuffed animals crammed into the wall.

The bizarre moment was captured on video and shared on Nijsse91裸聊视频檚 TikTok page, Connor91裸聊视频檚 Custom Woodwork (c.c. woodwork), which quickly went viral, garnering over five million views.

Suggestions the toys were packed full of drugs or money were also quickly dismissed by the couple.

The truth about the stuffed animal mystery? The couple have their own, rather less exciting theory: the bags of toys were quite simply, insulation.

According to Nijsse, the previous owners had lived at the property for 30 years. When building the garage in the early 2000s, the couple used the toys, no longer wanted by their three adult children, as a cost-saving method to insulate the walls, speculate the couple.

"Not quite as exciting as a serial killer,91裸聊视频� says Nijsse. 91裸聊视频淏ut that91裸聊视频檚 what makes sense to us.91裸聊视频�

As well as messages from wannabe online sleuths, the couple91裸聊视频檚 video has also sparked fond memories world-wide.

91裸聊视频淧eople are telling us they recognize stuffies from their childhood and that they91裸聊视频檇 love to have them again,91裸聊视频� said Nijsse.

In response to the outpouring of nostalgia, the retro toys, which Nijsse and Hinkkuri think could originate from the 91裸聊视频�80s and 91裸聊视频�90s, are now winging their way across the world to new homes.

A pink elephant is headed for Las Vegas, a brown bear to Indiana, a pair of yellow ducks to the U.K. and a plaid monkey with brilliant blue eyes is on its way to South Carolina.

Dealing with multiple requests a day, Nijsse says he has become a familiar face at his local branch of Canada Post, with staff also recognizing him from the TikTok video. His viral fame has also changed things, maybe not for the better, at work.

But not all of the stuffed animals will be leaving the couple's home. One 91裸聊视频榖ig brown bear91裸聊视频� that caught the eye of Nijsse will be staying put, while some unlucky cuddly critters are headed straight back to where they came from: the garage wall.
