'How to Fight a Baby' Video Incites Laughs…and Controversy

A dad's humorous video aimed at teaching viewers "how to fight a baby" has gone incredibly viral since it was initially posted online late last month.

"A lot of you out there are scared of babies. You don't know what to do. Oh my God, they're intimidating. I'm so scared. I don't know how to handle it," Gavin McInnes said at the start of the video.

"They are easy peasy to handle," he continued. "I'm going to show you how."

The video then depicts the Brooklyn father jokingly wrestling with and tickling his baby. However, some individuals have expressed outrage over the father's actions.

"I would beat this guy's a** for this," one individual said in the comments.

"This is wrong in so many ways," another user said.
