Ireland: Pregnant parents in disbelief as gender reveal goes wrong
Nowadays, happy couples who are expecting a little one tend to typically host parties, such as iconic gender reveals, to share the happy news with their friends and family. Typically, an item like a large balloon will be used to do the honours, being popped by the expecting parents to reveal specific coloured confetti inside – pink or blue.
But, in a jaw-dropping ordeal, company Ultrascan located in Dublin, Ireland, left pregnant parents in disbelief after a mishap with their gender reveal balloon. An employee held the balloon under her arm as she walked towards the expectant couple – but quickly left their jaws dropping as the balloon popped in front of their very eyes.

Sharing the video onto popular streaming app TikTok, the company shared CCTV footage of the couple in complete shock from the incident.
“Gender reveal gone wrong,” they captioned the post beside mind-blown emojis.
When the employee walked out of the back room with the visible balloon under her arm, she was also left in utter shock when the balloon popped before her eyes.
Once the balloon had disappeared, an abundance of pink confetti exploded from the item – showing that the couple were expecting a little baby girl.

In a previous video, the company detailed how they make the special gender reveal balloons.
The process starts by putting the colour inside the balloon before inflating it with a pumping mechanism – and adding some finishing touches with a blue and pink ribbon.
The popular balloon featured the iconic wording, “boy or girl?”
Whilst the ordeal initially seemed mortifying, fellow TikTokers took to the comment section to ease the burden for the surprised couple.
One user gushed: “It’s actually a brilliant one, they have this memory forever.”
A second agreed: “If this happened to me I’d probably love it because it’s something you can always look back on and laugh at, and also, it’s rare.”
“I love how they tried to look away,” a third joked.
