Couple’s Kayak Argument Goes Viral, Leaves Internet Amused
A lighthearted disagreement between a couple during a kayaking trip has taken social media by storm. The viral video, shared by Instagram user Arushi Trivedi, captures a comical moment where her husband refuses to paddle unless she agrees to his conditions—smiling throughout the trip and not complaining about bad photos.
The clip shows the couple gliding across the water before the husband suddenly halts, turning what could have been an argument into a humorous negotiation. With no other choice, Arushi playfully admits in her caption that she had to apologize to get moving again.
“I had to say sorry because no matter how much I tried, the kayak wouldn’t move unless Kartik helped. Pro tip: If you’re in the middle of the sea in a two-person kayak with no lifeguards around, just apologize!” she wrote.
The video has quickly gained over two lakh views, with users flooding the comments section with laughter and personal anecdotes.
One user humorously noted, “This is the perfect way to settle arguments—I’m taking notes!” Another commented, “Such an adorable way to handle disagreements!”
Others related to the scenario, with one sharing, “This happened on my honeymoon! I told my husband, ‘Let’s get to shore first, then we’ll argue!’” Another remarked, “Maybe we should all settle fights this way—no shouting, just a peaceful boat ride!”
Many viewers found the husband’s request for a constant smile particularly amusing. “The fact that he insisted she smile is hilarious!” one comment read. Another joked, “Hope the kayak didn’t float away while they were stuck arguing!”
The video has sparked conversations about fun and lighthearted ways to handle disagreements in relationships, with some even considering adopting this method themselves. As one commenter cheekily put it, “Thanks for the great idea!”
