Gender reveal videos are a new phenomenon that will eventually become mandatory by law if you want to procreate. At the very least, if you don’t try to produce a #ViRaLmOmEnT and just go to the doctor, find out the baby’s sex, and go home, society will view you as an outsider–like a leper or a guy with a flip phone.
The funny thing about these gender reveal videos that in some of them, what is supposed to be a moment filled with unbridled joy, is often overshadowed by a trivial malfunction in the gender reveal process.
ie.) The mother-to-be throws a bad pitch to the father-to-be batter, exploding the ball without a swing, revealing the gender. The father stands at the plate, fuming, staring a hole through his wife because she should know he prefers it low and outside. He will stare at the ceiling in bed that night reconsidering if he married the right girl. He won’t know the baby’s sex until birth.
Or, in video form, the below:

This dude is having a baby boy. He should be ecstatic. Instead he looks like he’s going to strangle his wife. Chill, man, it’s just a gimmick.
Where does this rank in biggest gender reveal fails of all-time? There have been many worse.
