A delightful video of a man filming himself at a matchmaking event, and then forgetting to edit himself telling his friend to ditch the function, racked up millions of views on mainland Chinese social media over the past few days.

On August 7, the 28-year-old man known by his profile name “Student Ai Gao” recorded himself at a matchmaking gathering in Jinan in eastern China’s Shandong province to prove to his mother that he had been making an effort to find a wife.
In the video, the man, who had short curly hair and a big smile, videotaped the matchmaking crowd that had gathered behind him and said: “Hi Mum! Today I’ve come to attend the matchmaking event!”
“As you can see, I am very serious about finding a wife. I hope you are no longer concerned about me,” he added.
Unfortunately, the man forgot to edit out a blooper reel and most certainly failed to assuage his mother’s concern.

“Did you finish shooting?,” the man asked his friend at the end of the video. “Let’s go eat now!,” he said after receiving confirmation from the friend.
