Utah mum giving birth into river viewed 52 millions times YouTube

A video showing 43-year-old Utah mum giving birth into a river has been viewed 52 millions times, since it was first posted in 2013.

Mother-of-four Simone Thurber says she's 'not hippy drippy', but was desperate to give birth in the wild.

Thurber told The Daily Mail: ‘After 50 people watched it I thought OMG my friends have seen me really naked, after 500 I was shocked.’

‘To know that more than 52 million people have taken the time to watch me having my now four-year-old daughter Perouze and to get messages from mums and dads thanking me for sharing this intimate birthing experience because it helped them feel less stressed or scared about their birth choice decisions is great.’

Explaining why she wanted to give birth in nature, Thurber said, 'I am not a hippy drippy mum but I wanted my fourth child to be born away from beeping machines and a hospital environment.'
