Couple Climbs Frozen Mountain with 9-month-old baby
A Lithuanian couple went viral after climbing frozen Mount Rysy in Poland with their 9-month-old baby. The video sparked a big online debate about parenting and safety.
A Lithuanian couple has gone viral on social media after a video showed them climbing a frozen mountain in Poland with their 9-month-old baby. The mountain is Mount Rysy, which is known as one of the coldest and most dangerous peaks in that region. In the video, both parents are seen carrying the baby in a front carrier while walking carefully on snow and ice. Mountain guides had already warned them not to climb because the weather was bad and the surface was slippery. However, they decided to continue their climb.
When the video appeared online, many people were shocked. Some viewers said the act was brave but careless, while others felt the parents were putting their baby in danger. The video quickly spread across Instagram, TikTok, and Reddit, gaining millions of views and reactions from people around the world.
Rescue teams later stated that the mountain is not safe for infants because of freezing temperatures and the risk of falling. Even with these dangers, the couple and their baby safely reached back down from the climb. The viral clip has now started a large discussion about parenting, safety, and responsible adventure travel.
Many users commented that a child’s life is more precious than any photo or social media moment. Others said it is a reminder that not every adventure needs to be extreme just to get attention online. The incident has become a strong example of how quickly social media can influence opinions on parenting and risk.
