Like this short video for example which was shared by the Twitter account @momentviral and shows a pregnant woman in what looks like her third trimester judging by the size of her belly.

The video, which you can find at the top of this article, only lasts 5 seconds, but shows this pregnant woman, in her gym clothes, getting ready to do an acrobatic move.

And the amazing thing about this video is that, despite her huge belly, she still managed to get herself up on her hands and do a handstand against the wall, belly out and everything!

However, it seems that all the weight of her future baby made her lose her balance and she instantly crumpled in a ball on the ground. The video outraged lots of internet users who believe that she was being reckless.

Lots of people have called her irresponsible and say she has endangered her unborn baby’s future for no reason at all, whereas other people saw the funny side to it. Which side do you come down on?
