Has anyone seen the viral video of a Grandma being surprised with 2nd twin baby?

It's quite old but popped up on my FB recently.

Grandparents are filmed being presented with a second baby that they didn't know about. They were there with the son & daughter after the birth of what they thought was one baby. Then the son comes into the room with another baby and says (not literally) "Surprise ... we had twins!"

AIBU to think this is really really ODD behaviour by the parents? The comments under the video are full of people criticising the Grandma for being shocked. Wtf do they think they would do if they had been pranked like this?

Not sure if it’s the same video but I have seen one like this and I thought the same as you. How odd that you wouldn’t tell your parents there would be two babies! It’s real life, not friends!!

Not seen the video but that's not a nice thing to do to someone IMO. Especially to film it as well, shows they not that bothered about the person they are surprising or how they would feel as long as they get their film Hmm

Some of those sorts of videos are definitely fake.

I saw one the other day, the son came to visit his family after a year, and he walked in with a baby that they hadn’t known about. Then the woman he’d had the baby with, the family were all ‘who are you?!’ as it’s turned out they weren’t together but she’d had his baby. I thought that was a bit off. I don’t like big reveals of life events at all though, not pregnancy reveals or dreaded gender reveals or anything like that. ESPECIALLY when they’re just done for social media.
