Who will win the interspecies cuteness showdown? Five-month-old Emerson rocketed to YouTube fame thanks to his hilarious look of complete terror, followed by giggles, every time his mom blew her nose. Emerson and family appeared on TODAY -- check out his big baby blues!
And you can watch Emerson's complete YouTube video here (having watched this several times, I can testify that it is, indeed, funny every time):
Emerson's reaction to his mom's cold symptoms put us in mind of another famous YouTube baby video involving dramatic reactions to nasal emissions. Of course, we mean the Sneezing Baby Panda video, a classic that has rocked the Internet to the tune of 100-million-plus YouTube views. My favorite part of the 17-second video is the "WTF?" look that mama panda gives the camera right at the end: What new mother hasn't been similarly baffled by some weird nose coming out of her baby?
Now, the big question: Which video is cuter, the Baby Scared of Mom Blowing Nose, or Sneezing Baby Panda? That's right, it's a cute-off. And you are the judge. Vote, and defend your choice in the comments!
