Boy Bursts Into Tears After Parents Told Him He Has Ebola In Cruel Prank
Heartless prankster parents told their son he has contracted the deadly Ebola virus and watched as he bursts into tears.
A video of a US couple telling their son he has Ebola as a joke has gone viral with nearly two million views in two days. It shows the boy’s mum wearing a face mask, holding a thermometer after having taken her son’s temperature.
She shows it to the father, who is off-camera, who immediately declares: “Oh hell no! He got Ebola!” At this point, the boy, unsurprisingly, screams and bursts into tears while his younger brother runs off.
The prank has divided viewers, with some proclaiming it is ‘cruel’ and ‘heartless’ and others defending it as ‘hilarious’.
One user commented: “It’s not the prank that boils my blood, but the fact they recorded it then uploaded it to the public on the web as a light-hearted joke.” Another said: “God forgive me, but I’m laughing so loud. Poor baby.”
The Ebola virus has been spreading rapidly and the World Health Organisation believes there will be 10,000 new cases worldwide per week in two months – so by about the end of the year.
Described as the world’s worst medical crisis since Aids, more than 8,000 cases have been recorded within West Africa, with a handful of confirmed cases in the US, Spain and Macedonia.
