Adorable moment newborn baby copies dad's laugh
- 5 months ago
A mum was left in "pure shock" when her baby copied his dad's laugh - moments after being born.
Video shows Bentley Blubaugh, 20, laughing and young Emil Blubaugh apparently mimicking him.
Mum Sadie Blubaugh, 19, captured the cute moment while still in bed in the delivery room.
Sadie, a travel consultant from Wichita, Kansas, USA, said: "I had been induced the night before and due to the induction failing miserably. I got a C-section.
"Once I had gotten into the C-section recovery room I wanted to show all my friends my new baby!
"I was snapchatting all my friends and happened to capture the moment when snapping my friend Natalee.
"In the video my husband laughed out of pure joy and excitement for his new son.
"Immediately following the laugh, our son seemed to laugh in the exact way that Bentley had just done.
"Right after you can see my pure shock from what had just occurred."
Sadie posted the video online and it garnered millions of views.
She added: "We didn’t think much of it at first. I think we were in pure shock.
"But after watching it a few times that night. I said 'this will go viral' by viral I thought maybe 100k views, not 10 million.
"I didn’t even bother posting the video for days because I second-guessed myself.
"But after hearing my family and friends say things like 'I’ve watched that video 10 times' or 'I can’t believe how crazy that video is' I knew I had to post it."
The footage was captured on September 23.
