A new dad just shared a live recording of his son’s birth with his family, friends and all of Facebook.

Kali Kanongata’a said he filmed his wife giving birth so distant relatives could share in the joy, according to an interview with People, but unknowingly opened up the video all of Facebook. The 45-minute recording has now been viewed more than 100,000 times.
