i think he made it look too much like an actual accident
like he could have done it in a way that he still got the reaction from his wife but when she looked back on it it would look silly so she can avoid nightmares and stuff
people in the comments are like "its just a prank u pusillanimous individual"
okay, i'll send somebody to break into your house with your newborn child, replace the child with a dummy, and then shoot the dummy when you walk into the room
you would be in tears and when you see it's a prank you're not going to go "oh lol sick prank brah"
you're still going to be in tears and you're probably going to try to hurt the person who did it you pusillanimous individual
