BEING pregnant is one of the happiest times for a couple, and many want to find as many ways to celebrate it as possible.
But one couple have left people horrified by their unique gender reveal that comes with a public warning.
Kirra Mahaley, from the US, took to social media to show off her gender reveal party.
In the video, she and her partner were seen in a large park celebrating the day with friends and family.
But the unique twist on the gender reveal had people horrified.
The mum-to-be stood and wore a punching pad as her partner put his boxing gloves on.
On the pad was a box filled with coloured powder to announce the gender.
As you can imagine – the idea was for her partner to punch the pad on the pregnant woman’s hand to let the powder explode and find out what the gender of their baby was.
In the video, the dad went on to punch the pad numerous times with such force Kirra stumbled on her feet.
But after several punches the pouch finally exploded with pink powder confirming they were having a little girl.
“Baby girl coming soon (I couldn’t do the pads right his punches areeee harddddd) I’m so excited,” she captioned the post.
While the couple were happy with their reveal, the video posted to TikTok had a public warning put on the clip that warned: “Participating in this activity could result in you or others getting hurt.”
The clip shared on her account @kirramahaley_ has since gone viral with over 1.9 million views and 35k likes.
People were quick to take to the comments of the post and share their horror and danger of the gender reveal.
One person wrote: “The worst gender reveal of all time sponsored by Stella Artois.”
Another commented: “I’m sure there was multiple different ways to do a gender reveal rather than swinging at your misses.”
GENDER reveals are becoming bigger and more elaborate day by day, with people constantly thinking of different ways to up those before them.
And money is no issue for a lot of these couples – with some spending hundreds or thousands on the event.
Read on for some of the most expensive gender reveals in history.
Ste Hamilton
Wealthy property tycoon and YouTuber Ste Hamilton decided to gift his wife-to-be Isabella Rowles with a £300,000 Lamborghini, which would be in either pink or blue to reflect their baby’s gender.
Steven and Isabella and friends and family attended an extravagant event at the Belfry Hotel and Resort near Birmingham to find out they were having a baby boy.
“It was worth every second of the hard work to see the happiness in everyone’s faces on the day,” Ste said, after spending a further £40,000 on the big reveal.
Logan Paul
The wrestling star and YouTuber and fiancee Nina Agdal staged a public wrestling match for their gender reveal.
A wrestler in pink trunks took on one in blue, with the one in pink emerging victorious – signifying that they are having a baby girl.
Inga Stumbriene
The Lithuanian influencer hired planes to fly in the sky as she, her fiance and their nearest and dearest watched.
The planes dropped a load of blue confetti – revealing the pair were having a boy – but people insisted it was the “most polluted” gender reveal ever.
Anonymous couple
One of the most recent jaw-dropping gender reveals happened in May 2024, when a couple decided to DYE a waterfall to reveal if they were having a boy or girl.
After the videos circulated on the social media, the public demanded for the couple to be punished, with some suggesting they should go to jail.
Others were concerned about water contamination, as the pair had used a powdered chemical known as “Blue Lagoon” into the Queima-Pe River, which feeds the waterfall.
“We wanted to do this one,” Kirra replied.
“I’m lost for words,” penned a third.
Meanwhile a fourth said: “Sorry, but worst gender reveal.”
“Horrible gender reveal. Probably worst one I have watched,” claimed a fifth.
Someone else added: “OMG he nearly knocked her over Jesus.”
