Outrageous Gender Reveal Party Sees Inflatable Babies Go Head-To-Head In Boxing Match

Gender reveals are all the rage at the moment, but this one looks like it takes the cake.

While some couples opt for a blue or pink coloured cake, or maybe a balloon, these soon-to-be parents in the US wanted to amp things up a bit.

Relatives of pregnant Rose Safar dressed up in inflatable babies and squared off in an organised boxing match in Jacksonville, Florida.

The cousin and nephew of the woman, Sam Kassab and Dredain Alloush, donned the huge outfits and threw a few punches in front of the roughly 90 guests. Rose said she wanted to put on a show for everyone rather than 'simply pop a balloon or confetti popper'.

She said: "It's been such a sad and gloomy year for all of us so we wanted something that would bring some joy and laughter to everyone.

"One of my relatives came up with the idea of having a boxing match with the massive babies to symbolise which sperm won the fight to get inside the egg during conception."

Thankfully, neither of the people inside the inflatable suits was hurt and everyone was able to get back to the party and have some fun.

Rose added: "After the boxing match we had a wonderful time, playing games, dancing, eating, and drinking. It was a truly memorable evening for everyone."

This gender reveal party went off without issue, but that's not to say that things don't sometimes go a little awry.

On guy who found this out the hard way is Parker Stuard, who last year had an unfortunate incident during the gender reveal he and his girlfriend had organised for their unborn baby, as you can see in the video below:

The clip shows the excited couple attempting to set off some party poppers filled with coloured powder - blue to represent a boy or pink for a girl.

While girlfriend Micah appears to struggle to get hers to explode, Parker has no such trouble and it quickly releases a puff of blue smoke. It's a boy! Congratulations, etc.

But if you look closely at the video, you'll see that the other end of the party popper somehow fires out and hits Parker right in the baby makers. Ouch.

It seems as though Parker did see the funny side, though, as he joked: "Guess we're never having kids again."
