Picture this: you're enjoying a nice summer vacation with your partner. After a day in the hot sun, you head back to your hotel room and fall asleep. But when you wake up, you realize the person in bed beside you is not your partner… but your partner's mom. I know.
Back in 2012, a Belgium organization posted the following video to YouTube where it quickly gained a ton of attention. It now has 15 million views and counting. It's called "The Midnight Switch: A Boyfriend’s Worst Nightmare" and it's amazing.
The Foundation Against Cancer sent five couples on vacation. In the middle of the night, however, the girlfriends snuck out of their hotel rooms only to be replaced by their moms! And lucky for us viewers, the secret swaps were recorded on hidden camera. The big reveal is not only funny, wildly embarrassing and entertaining to watch, but it also drives home an unexpected yet important message.
As it turns out, this video is much more than a viral prank. The Foundation Against Cancer created the video to spread awareness about the dangers… of sunbathing?!
You'll see what I mean.
