Playing with dads improves children’s emotional control. According to psychologists, kids love that fathers go in for a more physical, tumble-style play than mothers. It’s not a secret either that daddies are often big kids at heart.
We might have found a video to prove this theory. Watch as a father and daughter do a perfect swing trick. Check it out because even acrobats would envy dad from the video.
Papa took his little daughter to the playground wearing an elegant suit, and he had no problems with rolling in the ground.
Why did he dress up only to lay down in the middle of the park? Well, the answer is simple. It’s so much fun, plus daddy wanted to make his girl happy. The daughter looks like she might be a school-aged kid.
She sits on the swing, ready to fly in the air. Her father is bubbly, he pushes his princess through the air, and both look like they’re having a lot of fun. We assume that the mother is behind the camera because the duo is comfortable with the person who’s filming them.
So, what’s the trick all about?
Don’t worry, you’ll find out soon. The video is only 14 seconds long, but it’s a lot of fun. Dad pushes his little girl on the swing. She flies forward and then sails back, kicking her feet for some extra propulsion.
Daddy catches her and then pushes her again. This time, the swing goes farther forward. It gives the father enough time to do the stunt. He quickly slides down the swing and lays on his back. Father’s hands are on his stomach, and he waits for the girl to swing back.
Take a look at how close dad was to being hit by the swing or the girl’s feet.
Had he not done the stunt perfectly, father would have ended up with some horrifying injuries. However, we’re watching a dad who’s obviously a gymnast at heart.
His timing is perfect, and we must point out how flexible the man is.
More than 38 million YouTube users have already seen the video, and some comments are hilarious.
We laughed so hard at one particular comment saying, “Enjoy your agility while you can. You won’t be able to get up so quickly forever.” Well, that’s true, but let’s not think about that now. Instead, notice how father did the stunt with his glasses on. The swing could have easily ripped his face-off, but the man bravely kept his glasses on.
Isn’t it refreshing to see a successful stunt, as opposed to numerous fails on YouTube? While we’re at fails, another user commented that “he was gonna laugh if the swing hit the man.” We guess that it’s sometimes entertaining to watch some unsuccessful stunts as well. As long as no one gets hurt, of course,
When the swing goes forward for the second time, daddy quickly jumps up and shouts, “Success!”
Just look at the satisfaction on the father’s face.
They must have attempted the stunt numerous times because he seems overwhelmed that they finally did it right. The girl shares her daddy’s joy and keeps on swinging. The video then shuts out.
We did a little research, and you’d be surprised to see how many swing tricks exist.
Let your inner monkey shine through, and try doing the front wheel, the back wheel, or maybe even the handstand or the backflip. Don’t you know what those are? Take a quick look at the tutorial and find out.
We guess that you won’t be looking at those swings with the same eyes next time you go to the park. Have fun and watch the video to get some extra inspiration from the brave dad.
