Watch an Australian Gender Reveal End With a Car in Flames

That has to be an omen, right?

An Australian man has been convicted of dangerous operation of a motor vehicle after a gender reveal ceremony ended with his car in flames.

In a drone video of the incident, the Queensland man's car can been seen spewing clouds of blue smoke as it rolls down the road in a truly impressive display of boganity. The burnout continues until the car bursts into flames, forcing the driver to abandon his vehicle.

The footage was shared by Queensland Police, who said the incident took place last year and that the man has since been convicted. Twitter didn't see his conviction as a reason to let up, however, and they dunked on the expectant family.

The "embarrassing gender reveal" genre of videos is surprisingly rich. It includes the Border Agent who started the Sawmill wildfire by shooting a target full of explosives and this man who managed to miss his shot in a basketball gender reveal.
