Heartstopping moment toddler leaps from top bunk after copying oblivious mother jumping into dad’s arms for video

THIS is the heartstopping moment a toddler leaps from the top bunk after copying his oblivious mum jumping into his dad’s arms for a video.

Three-year-old Gabriel Bonor flipped onto his head after plunging from the bed while his parents were busy filming at their home in Russia.

The video shows the toddler's mum Sveta Ananas leaping into Andrei Bonor's arms while recording a slow motion TikTok video.

As she leaps into an aerobic embrace, she wraps her legs around Andrei, but viewers spotted something heartstopping in the background.

SPARKED DEBATE

Little Gabriel was seen leaping from the top bunk of his bed after copying his mum's movements.

The child flips onto his head, but luckily a mattress was in place in his landing zone.

The video then shows the toddler's momentum carrying him forward, with his head eventually grinding into the duvet.

In an instant, the child can be seen in a brief headstand before flipping back down, grinning happily.

Despite there being no injuries from the nerve-wracking ordeal, the video has sparked a debate between viewers.

One TikTok user said: "Wow! That poor kid. Parents are too self absorbed that they neglect their child."

While another wrote: "The child may have had a smile on his face but this doesn’t excuse the parents being neglectful. What if your son really injured himself? Shame on both of you."

Russian social media star Sveta hit back at the negative comments, telling her 50,000 followers: "Our parents didn’t have smartphones, I remember very well how I flew from closets on to the bed.

"But the worst thing was being on a chair, then another chair, then on the table and then flying and smashing an eyebrow."
