Thats Sick....................... :not_ok:

I've heard of that one. Talk about attention seeking...

I think it's funny :D .
But the kid is amazingly stupid.

How can that be sick?

that's just funny

That was on funniest home video shows once. LOL

Funny... but in a kinda sadistic way.

OH MY GOD... LMAO! One of the more tragic i've seen in a looooong while..

Tnx for the link.

My guess is, that the baby is trying to reenact something... The woman and the dog walking by, the baby falling down and crying... The guy behind the camera deliberatly moves so that the baby would follow that woman and the dog in and come into the view... Looks like they were trying to film something and they haven't edited it yet or something.

That's just weird if you ask me.

may i ask what does reenact mean=]

i dont know, in my opinion it just tries to get attention of his mom

I've shown it to both a friend of mine with a 2-year old kid and a friend of mine with a 2-year old sister. The first friend said her kid used to do that too, but to a lesser extend, and still sometimes does. The second friend said the sister didn't do that, but that it tends to happen with some kids. It just depends on what kind of kid and how well it's raised, I suppose.

The video's still hilarious, though :D

re-en-act... To act out something that has happened. Maybe when they went out the mum, the baby and the dog, the baby was walking and fell. People started laughing and the baby got the attention. Now the baby has the impression it's funny if it walks around the mother and falls - starts to cry/pretend to cry. The parents are obviously encouraging this.
It might be fun, but that baby might have some weird ideas on how to attract attention - if this pattern keeps continuing for a few more years.

Reenact means to act something that has previously done. eg. If someone did a completely idiotic thing. Someone lauging might copy what he's doing as though he was making the moment happen again. I know it's not a very good explanation. I suck at this explaining anyways..
