An expecting father couldn’t hide his disappointment at his family’s gender reveal in a video going viral on TikTok.

In the video, a group of people are gathered around to watch the popping of a massive balloon, set to reveal the sex of a child.

Everyone continues cheering and laughing as he appears to turn away from the rest, not smiling at the news.
The video drew mixed reactions in the comments section, with many criticizing the father-to-be, but some defending him.

If nothing else, the father can take pride in knowing that his reaction, while disappointed, was not destructive.
The same can’t be said for a gender reveal party that took place in Kingston, New Hampshire last month.
An explosion took place at Torromeo Industries on a weeknight and it was discovered to be part of a gender reveal.

According to WMUR, the explosion was strong enough to shake homes in nearby towns.Â
Police claimed that 80 pounds of Tannerite, which is typically used as a target in firearm practice, was exploded during the reveal.
‘If used improperly or irresponsibly, the consequences could be very serious,’Â said Sgt. Jeff Dade, who works for the New Hampshire State Police Bomb Squad.
The couple responsible for the explosive has not been publicly revealed, but police were investigating the incident and charges are possible.
