Not exactly the best end to a gender reveal party

Poke Staff. Updated July 28th, 2022

It’s no secret that a large number of gender-reveal parties have gone horribly wrong.

Some misahps – to put it lightly – have included –

A young dad getting hit in his baby-making equipment after he held the smoke tube the wrong way around.

A light aircraft crashing (with no serious injuries) due to the weight of pink water it was going to release.

One gender-reveal party starting an actual wildfire.

On the r/WhatCouldGoWrong forum, u/Starkf_15 shared this baffling gender-reveal fail.

It wasn’t just the unfotunate guest’s powdery new look that got people talking – there was also the fact that the colour was purple. It’s a rare parent who knows they’re going to give birth to a non-binary child – or a plum.

These comments show where Redditors’ thoughts were at.

Congratulations you’re having a Teletubby.

Depending on the mother’s age and other risk factors, there’s a good chance the child will be a bunch of grapes. They can develop normally, and if treated well they often go on to become fantastic vintages with smooth tannins.

The flare was pink so it’s a girl, the ball was just a gimmick I guess?

Props to the person filming this. Zooming in on the person covered in purple is what made this video.

u/See- had a suggestion.

Purple is “not pregnant, just fat.”

Never say that to anyone who actually is pregnant.
