A Watford man was left jumping for joy after someone knocked on his door and handed him a case with £60,000 cash.
Daniel Isaila was set to go food shopping with wife Nicoleta when Christian Williams, the presenter of online competition specialist Best of the Best (BOTB), revealed he had won the Daily Draws Competition.
The overwhelmed Transport for London worker, who had just woken up from a night shift, recalled turning to his wife and saying: “I told you, I told you he was going to come one day!”
BOTB hands over keys to dream cars and lifestyle prizes each week to entrants, with one lucky delivery driver from Tamworth recently bagging a £500,000 cash prize.
Daniel said: “I’ve been watching the videos every day, hoping to see Christian on my doorstep, but I wasn’t really expecting it to actually happen.”
“I was just watching the TikToks seconds before Christian knocked on my door, saying how it just wasn’t my day,” he continued. “Obviously it was my day, I just can’t believe it!”

Daniel is currently renting but plans to put the “life-changing” money towards a deposit for the couple’s first home.
Mr Williams said: “A massive congratulations to Daniel for winning this fantastic cash prize.
“And what an incredible reaction to the news! It obviously meant so much to him and his wife, and I'm delighted that we can help them both get onto the property ladder as they look to buy their first home.”
Founded by William Hindmarch in 1999, BOTB says it has given away £64 million worth of cars.
