Daughter has terrified reaction to father's shaved beard

To a toddler the game of peek-a-boo can be fun and exciting, but for one little girl it was the scariest moment of her life.

A bearded Bradley Bailey and his daughter were playing peek-a-boo with a white towel, but he briefly paused the game so he could secretly shave off his whiskers. The reveal didn't go so well.

While it's unclear when exactly the video was shot, it was uploaded on YouTube Thursday and has since gained more than 800,000 views.

Despite the fact that some commenters are saying the joke was cruel, the only thing we think is wrong is he shot the video vertically. No excuse for that.
