Babies crying in slow motion makes for an hilarious, nightmarish trend

Thanks to higher frame rates and simple video editing tools at our fingertips, anyone can turn the heartbreaking cry from a child into a hilarious sound.

While there are plenty of people that have found humor in a slowed down version of their child's discomfort before, the trend kicked off again on Monday after someone submitted a clip of a stingray acting weird at an aquarium while using Snapchat's slow motion feature.

While the stingray was funny enough, there happened to be a baby wailing at the top of its lungs in the background, turning the clip into something straight out of a horror movie.

After that, another clip of a crying child was submitted to Reddit Monday evening, bringing to light a YouTube trend that deserved some recognition.

While the iPhone's slow motion feature will work, we find that Snapchat's slow motion filter has just the right speed for ultimate hilarity.

No babies were harmed in the making of this post, please chill.
