A father named Nicolas Hering has become an overnight celebrity, thanks to a TikTok video he posted last week. In it, he placed two lightsabers—one blue and one red—in front of his young son and asked him to make “one of the most important decisions of his life.”
The baby did not choose as Nicolas had hoped.
“The Of The Dark Side” Was Too Strong For The Jedi Baby To Resist
At one point, it looked like the Jedi baby had chosen to side with good. But just before he made the choice, he changed his mind and crawled for the red lightsaber. Then, he grabbed at it and looked back at his dad to confirm that he in fact had decided to follow the path of Anakin Skywalker, AKA Darth Vader.
Because of the perfectly played-out events, the video has gone viral with nearly 26 million views in only six days.
“YOU WERE THE CHOSEN ONE!!!!” a follower jokingly yelled.
“The way he went light side but was pulled back towards the dark side,” someone laughed. “Cinema.”
“Conflicted he was… struggled with the light and dark side of the force he did…” joked a clever commenter.
Even the official Star Wars account showed up in the comments saying, “The pull of the dark side…”
“A new dark lord in the house, Welcome Darth Diaper,” another person wrote.
