The other day Jason was scrolling through Instagram and stumbled upon this video of a gender reveal that went HORRIBLY wrong!
The couple being filmed were using sticks to hit a balloon that was tied to the ground as part of the gender reveal celebration.
Ideally, the balloon would bust open with smoke or confetti indicating either a boy or a girl.
In the video, you can hear their family yelling to "Hit it hard!" and "Strike Out!" but the couple cannot get the balloon to pop. Eventually, the man whacks it as hard as he can, which loosens the balloon from the ground, casuing it to drift away! You can hear the guests yelling as laughing as the soon to be dad runs after it, even attempting to jump over a fence!
Unfortunately, no one could grab the balloon and the video ends as it flies into the sky!
We used the audio as part of our 'Wam Bam Thank You Gram' today and had listeners guess what they think was happening in the video.
