A COUPLE has been brutally slammed for their OTT gender reveal party which involved a massive balloon 'bomb' indoors.
Ahead of their big day, the Spanish-speaking couple took to TikTok to share the news but quickly ended up going viral for all the wrong reasons.
Since being uploaded on social media, the video has caused quite the storm, racking up a whopping 25.4million views on Instagram alone.
It is believed that the clip was shared online by one of the guests, TikTok user Laura Salcedo (@laurasalcedo66).
At the start of the video, Laura was filming the two parents-to-be, both of whom appeared to be happy.
But what made the young mum-to-be a little nervous was the massive balloon 'bomb' in hanging in the middle of the room.

As enthusiastic guests were doing the countdown, the flame on the string made its way to the black balloon that had been filled with confetti.
Then, with a loud bang and a burst of flames, the balloon finally exploded and the video ended, without anyone being able to tell if it was going to be a girl or a boy.
According to Laura, who was sat right in front of the decorations, nobody was harmed.
But despite this, social media users quickly slammed the couple, insisting that not a single person in the room had been blessed with common sense.

''So not a single person in the room had second thoughts about this??'' a viewer was baffled.
Recently, a man played a prank during his gender reveal party – but it's the mum-to-be's reaction that's got people talking.
Determined to add a little twist to his gender reveal party, one man, believed to be from Australia, thought it'd be a good idea to prank the mum-to-be.
Ready with a camera, one of the guests, who posts on TikTok under the username @Papa Was Here, filmed the event – and things escalated pretty quickly.
In the video, which has since gone viral, the man could be seen holding a black balloon, which had loads of confetti inside.
But as the duo, the woman and the man, gathered together for the big reveal, the father suddenly let go off the black balloon by ''accident''.
Of course, everyone is shocked, screaming in sheer horror.
But one person was particularly upset – the man's partner.
In disbelief, she immediately dashed away, saying: ''Oh my God! This is what I mean – he is f***ing dumb!''
Shaking her head in shock, she didn't smile and added yet again: ''This is what I mean – he's so dumb…''
However, the man then pointed out to something – the real balloon they were meant to pop and immediately the woman started smiling.
After lots of laughing, a kiss and a countdown, she popped the balloon and the two found out they were going to be parents to a baby girl.
But as adorable as this moment was, people on social media couldn't help but notice the woman's initial reaction, which some described as a red flag.
One mortified viewer wished the man well in the future: ''Good luck with her.''
Another agreed, writing: '' “This is what I mean”. So she’s been talkin about it for some time. Best of luck.''
