A mum learned the hard way that a quiet child is rarely a good sign after her daughter gave her a massive fright while she was filming herself cleaning the kitchen. The seven‑second clip, posted by @sheabradley on TikTok, has now reached 3.7 million views.

Shea Bradley was timing how long it would take her to tidy up when her daughter suddenly appeared behind her, causing her to scream in shock. The scream startled her daughter, who then screamed right back, creating a perfectly chaotic chain reaction that viewers couldn’t get enough of.

I was making a video timing how long it took me to clean my kitchen when my daughter came in and scared the daylights out of me, I screamed and then scared her so she screamed.
