"Since Hunter was born in August 2020, grandparents were not allowed to enter the hospital, so Jeff wanted to find a way to make the first meeting memorable. We're guessing it was a moment they will never forget. Jeff remembers his father saying, 'You could have caused a heart attack for that!' But he had a good sense of humor about the whole thing."
"Jeff tells TODAY.com that the family came up with the idea 'just 30 seconds before they walked in the door.' Though the smooth sequence of events makes it look polished and rehearsed, Jeff says, 'We did not practice that at all! That literally just kind of all happened.'"
"The internet can't get enough ... but reactions are mixed. Some viewers want to give Savannah a best actress award, and others think there's nothing funny about this prank."
Jeff Scott shared a prank video on Instagram that became a viral sensation with 35 million views. The video captures his parents Brad and Daryle arriving to meet their newborn grandson Hunter for the first time. Jeff's 5-year-old daughter Savannah carries what appears to be the baby across a hard floor toward the grandparents. When Savannah spots her grandmother and runs toward them, she drops the bundle, and the baby's head appears to hit the ground with an audible thunk. The prank is revealed when the dropped object is actually a baby doll; the real Hunter was safely sleeping in his crib. The family conceived the idea just 30 seconds before the grandparents arrived, wanting to make the first meeting memorable during pandemic hospital restrictions.
