Disturbing or funny?

I genuinely can't make up my mind about this one. I can clearly see the baby's not in distress, but it still made me very uncomfortable watching it, and I'm not entirely sure why.
I know I wouldn't attempt anything like this and id go nuts if I did see anyone do it, so im obviously more in the "Oh my God, stop that now!" category??
And yet...the baby is laughing?
Your thoughts?

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.Absolutely no issue with it at all and my 3 kids, and my three grandkids have all totally enjoyed very similar play fighting and always struggle to contain the laughter. My granddaughter loves bouncing on my bed and after several high bounces which I help her with she gets thrown onto the pillows backwards and she goes hysterical with laughter! (mind u she's 2 not 6 months)

My point exactly - everyone roughouses with their little ones, but not a little as this one!

Anyway, I don't think for a second that this baby is in any danger or distress.
My only concern is that someone who isn't so careful my imitate this video and do their baby an injury.
But, responsible parents can play with their kids like this and no harm is ever done.

Yeah, until there"s an OOPS! moment. Near the start, he throws the baby up the bed. Miscalculate that slightly and junior goes sailing head first into the headboard.
Most wouldn't do that with a puppy. Why do it with an infant?

2sp - just re-read your post, my apologies for 'skimming' it - of course that this the point we are both making.
I can't remember this chap's name, but when ever i see him on TV - he is on Have I Got News For You - he is always the one whose remark kills the humourous exchange because it is too left-field to be actually funny.
And that is what I feel he is doing here - hey, the notion of 'fighting' a baby - that's funny, right?
Er, no, not really, it's not.
'Playing' with your baby, which is what he is doing, that's entirely different, so why not just call it that, and avoid looking for humour that isn't there.

I don't see it that way, i don't think he is seeking humour, i think that he is seeking "punch line"..."effect"..."drama" and if this is the case then which would attract more attention:
"Playing with your baby" OR "Fighting with your baby?"
Which headline would sell newspapers?
"Royal College Report into the association of lung cancer and Smoking"
OR
"Do fags Kill?"
