Tense moment Aussie woman unleashes the ‘world's angriest tirade' on a terrified tradie after making a shocking discovery in her backyard
A furious mother has confronted an Endeavour Energy worker in a blazing roadside showdown, accusing him of filming her while she was semi-naked in her backyard.
The dramatic clash unfolded on Tuesday in Yarramundi, in Sydney 's rural north-western outskirts, when the partially-clad woman spotted a drone hovering over her property.
The enraged mum immediately pulled up her pants and jumped in her car to track down whoever was operating the drone.
She eventually found an energy worker packing up his drone equipment and pulled up alongside to confront him, as her daughter filmed her as she unleashed her fury.
'You were over my f***ing house, in my backyard?' she yelled at him in the expletive-laden tirade shared online under her TikTok handle of GiddyUpQueen.
'I was in my backyard and had my f***ing pants off and you were droning there.'
The worker, who introduced himself as Aaron, remained calm during the heated exchange and insisted the drone was only photographing power poles for maintenance purposes.
But the barefoot woman furiously dismissed his version of events and accused him of invading her privacy as her anger boiled over in the roadside clash.
The video of her tirade at the stunned worker has since racked up more than 100,000 views.
'I'm recording to ask you why you are filming out the back when I haven't got my pants on and your drone is out the back filming me?' she shouted at the worker.
He tried to explain himself and said, 'Ma'am listen,' and asked, 'Why are you yelling at me?' before she cut him off.
'No, I don't want to listen,' the mum fumed. 'There is no excuse for that because you were just filming me with this f***ing thing!'
The volatile scene escalated further when the woman reached into the back of the man's ute and appeared to grab at the drone.
'Ma'am, you cannot touch that, it's a federal offence,' the man said calmly, holding his hands up.
'I don't give a f**k,' she snapped back without hesitation. 'So is filming someone in their backyard.'
Growing more enraged, the woman began calling the worker a 'f*** dog' repeatedly as he replied, 'Ma'am, you don't want to listen to what I have to say.'
'What could you possibly say that makes that okay?' she yelled. 'How is Endeavour Energy allowed to film naked women in their backyard?'
Attempting to defuse the situation, the worker calmly explained the drone was only used to take photos, not videos, of power poles as part of an official inspection.
'My name is Aaron and I'm from Endeavour Energy. We are photographing the poles for the 2024, 2025…' he added before being cut off again.
Before he could finish, the woman, dressed in jeans and a grey T-shirt, interrupted.
'You were over my f***ing house,' she shouted. 'In my backyard. I seen you. My bird was screaming and told me,' she said, referring to her pet cockatoo.
'I want to see the footage. I want to see the footage from my f***ing house. Don't tell me to calm down, I just seen a drone in my backyard and I've got no pants on.'
The worker replied: 'I'm happy to show you what I can.'
But the woman then told him nothing would calm her down and that she wanted the authorities involved.
As the worker tapped the drone monitor in an attempt to bring up the images, the woman's patience ran out.
'What an invasion of privacy,' she yelled.
'I want to see the footage or I am calling the police out here right now and I will be telling them.'
The video then cut off.
The woman later posted the footage to her TikTok account, tagging Endeavour Energy, NSW Police, the AFP and multiple media outlets, using the hashtag #wewantjustice.
She also added the caption: 'This morning we caught Endeavour Energy recording us with a drone in our backyard.
'There's no power poles there. He took off and didn't show us the footage.'
The woman Daily Mail Australia she lost her temper because there appeared to be no oversight on what the worker was filming.
'A lone man is allowed to drone over women's backyards without supervision on what he's looking at and its not being monitored. I'm really over it ... it's only girls that live here,' she said.
'They are supposed to provide the footage and we have had no response from anyone.'
But an Endeavour Energy spokesperson told Daily Mail Australia records are kept and that their pilot had been undertaking a pre-summer aerial inspection - a critical safety program that helps prevent bushfires and that no video was recorded.
'Each year we inspect over 180,000 power poles in bushfire-prone areas to safeguard customers and communities.
'In 2024, we transitioned from using helicopters to drones for quieter, more precise inspections.
'The drones are operated by licensed pilots, fly along the powerline corridor and pause at the top of each pole to capture images of the asset condition with precision, speed and minimal disruption.
'They do not record video and their technology ensures they only capture pictures of the network.
They also praised Aaron's ability to remain calm during the unexpected situation.
'We commend our team member, shown in the video, for his efforts in trying to support this customer.
'Our team are always open to explaining the importance of these inspections and share the images taken, as he was trying to do here.'
The woman added that she was also angry because she is of the opinion she is being bullied off her property.
'We have been subjected to (workers from) Boral (who built a concrete plant across the road) p***ing out the front of our property for three years because we asked them not to once.'
