A father from California, who describes himself as a "Realistic down to earth comic" on his YouTube channel, is receiving no laughs for his latest video, and, in fact, has infuriated some on social media. 

Tre Cosby filmed a clip where he makes his son destroy his Playstation 4 after receiving bad grades at school, New York Post reports

"I'm not going to tear it up. You gonna tear your own s**t up," Tre tells his son in the video, which has received over 21,000 views and a ton of mixed comments.

If the remorseful son's tears weren't enough, the dad even rides over the bag that contained the Playstation, flinging it to the floor afterwards. 

Many have called Tre "ridiculous" for doing this and said that he could have grounded him or taken it away, rather than doing this to teach him a lesson.
