Little Shooter, Big Trouble
Just when you think a family video is harmless, this clip turns the internet into a hot topic. A sleepy‑headed father from Maharashtra decided to teach his three‑year‑old son how to load a revolver—yes, that kind of gun.
What the video shows
- Father demonstrates inserting bullets into an old‑school revolver.
- He hands it over to the kid, aiming the barrel right where the boy’s face should be.
- Throughout the clip the dad loudly convinces everyone that the safety catch is on.
When the footage blew up, police swooped in on July 12 and started interrogating the dad and the tiny trainee.
The police side of things
The officer describing the situation—Inspector B. Pandhare—reported that the father runs a school for under‑privileged kids in Maharashtra and that he holds a proper license for the firearm. He also explained that the father reached out to them with the paperwork, so the police shouldn’t lead them to the “no‑license” side of things.
During questioning, the dad claimed the little boy was just “curious”…which makes it sound less like a crime and more like a sitcom episode gone wrong.
Why this matters
Although the father says the gun’s safety was engaged, parents and experts alike are worried about a child around a weapon. The case has sparked a debate on how easily safety can be misrepresented online, and on how authorities cross-check shooting permits.
Bottom line
It’s a stark reminder that a seemingly normal video can reveal a dangerous situation. The dad and his tiny trainee may have been caught in a viral whirl, but the authorities are making sure the rule book gets followed—because safety isn’t a joke, even if the clip is.
