When father and son have a lot of free time, funny videos are created. Like this recreation of the hero emotes from Overwatch.
When the fathers of “our generation” dare to enter the internet, most people probably put their hands to their heads and hope they will “only” leave some embarrassing comment on Facebook. But some gamers involve their fathers directly in their YouTube channels. Like Nick Luciano, who repeatedly asks his father to reenact some scenes in various videos. This time they tackled Overwatch and simply recreated a few emotes.
Since the father is neither a particularly great actor nor does he have cosplay costumes to choose from, he simply uses the things he finds around him: dog leashes, Nerf guns, brooms, and lawnmowers.

The result is “pure gold” and incredibly entertaining. Here you can watch it in full length:
The effort was rewarded quite quickly. After the video was posted on Reddit, the view counts shot through the roof. The post received more than 24,000 upvotes on Reddit. And the relatively small YouTube channel with just over 2,000 subscribers suddenly has more than 200,000 video views and is flooded with comments.
Cortyn says: I think it’s really cool because you can see that the father is really having fun with it. Especially cool are the details that were recreated with the most absurd things. The soap bubbles in the Symmetra representation really made me laugh – and the hand vacuum cleaner with Torbjörn was just the cherry on top. You can almost be a bit envious of such a father.
Less funny is this topic: That’s why women usually remain silent in Overwatch voice chat.
