A father’s creative approach to reviewing his newborn baby as if it were an Amazon product has captured the hearts of millions. In a world where product reviews are a dime a dozen, this father’s unique take on the genre has sparked laughter and relatability among parents everywhere.
The video, posted by Jordan (@CamOnAll on TikTok), features him holding his newborn daughter, Louise, affectionately called Lou, in a semi-football hold. With a straight face, he delivers an amazon-style product review that has garnered over 8 million views. The humor lies in the way he describes his daughter’s arrival and characteristics, mimicking the typical Amazon product review format.
Jordan’s clever review format
Jordan begins his review by stating, “Hey everybody, this is my product review. We got this from Amazon roughly five-and-a-half weeks ago or so. It came in a little different package than we were expecting. We had to do some manual opening of the box, but hey, we got it out of there.” This refers to the unexpected but non-emergency C-section delivery of his daughter.
He continues, “They don’t tell you exactly the size. This one was 21 inches, I believe, so it was a good length. It was six lbs 14 oz, which is a really healthy weight.” Jordan’s humorous take on the product specifications of his daughter is what makes the video so endearing. He even mentions that the baby lost some of her “delivery weight” before they went home, adding a touch of realism to his comedic review.
The follow-up review
In a follow-up video, Jordan updates his review after three months. He humorously upgrades his daughter’s rating from 4.5 stars to 4.75 stars, joking that she’s definitely a 5-star product. He reveals that they got her lip tie and tongue tie fixed, and she is doing well. “She still spits up. She’s still gassy. But she really functions more like a normal baby…she’s gaining weight week over week. She’s getting chunky, which is good,” he says.
The follow-up video showcases the progression of his daughter’s development, adding a heartwarming touch to the comedic review. It’s a reminder that while parenthood comes with its challenges, it’s also filled with joy and growth.
The internet’s reaction
The video has sparked a wave of comments from other parents who found the review relatable and hilarious. Some commenters played along with the joke, while others shared their own experiences with similar “products.” The video has become a viral sensation, with many praising Jordan’s creativity and humor.
One commenter joked, “i see you got the model without blinker fluid. can you get them with the blinker fluid already installed.” Another shared, “Man..10 years ago I got 2 boxes at one time. I thought it was a joke. I guess they had a buy one get one free thing going on.” The comments section is filled with laughter and shared experiences, creating a sense of community among parents.
The video has also sparked discussions about the unpredictability of parenthood. As Jordan points out, “you really never know exactly what you’re going to get when you have a baby delivered (or when you deliver one yourself).” The humor in the video lies in the unexpected nature of parenthood and the ability to find laughter in the chaos.
The video has sparked laughter and discussions among parents worldwide, reminding us all to find joy in the unexpected.
