A video hit the internet last weekend that made us all squirm in our seats. It’s called Baby Yoga, and it starred a Russian lady swinging a baby around her backyard like a friggin’ ribbon-dancer. Speculation was that it couldn’t possibly be real, I mean, who in their right mind would swing a baby around by it’s feet for five minutes right next to a rock pile? No one,  right? Well, turns out it’s real, as Lena Fokina,  the lady from the video, came out to squash rumors that she had abused her children, saying “Did they notice that the babies aren’t crying—they’re even laughing—and that this system has been used for over thirty years in Russia and the children are all alive and healthy?” Nope, Lena. Guess we didn’t. I think we were a little preoccupied with the fact that babies are slippery little meat bags and you were flinging them around like pizza dough. SORRY.

Luckily, the American equivalent was released today that starred a much healthier version of the activity. Titled “Kid Workout,” this video featured an older child, carpet, and far less swinging. No offense to our Russian friends, but please, everyone. If you have the unstoppable desire to use your baby as a workout tool, please do Kid Workout instead of Baby Yoga. PLEASE.

Unfortunately, the Baby Yoga video was taken down from YouTube, so you’ll have to watch the clip at Gawker. Prepare yourself for creepiness, and meanwhile, check out this much more adorable video below.
