What Is The 'NYC Blanket Couple' Video?
At the end of April 2024, a TikToker uploaded a video sharing a shocking sight at Battery Park in New York City. In the video, the TikToker films a couple rolling around under a blanket, the presumption being that they're engaging in sensual acts. The video went viral, garnering over 40 million views in around two days.
While it's not clear what the couple was actually doing under the blanket, many viewers are running with the assumption that the two were doing something inappropriate. What makes things all the more shocking is how busy the park appears, with the act taking place in broad daylight. A day later, another angle of the couple, this time showing them emerging from the blanket, was uploaded to TikTok, also going viral and inspiring lots of reactions.

The video has inspired nonstop reactions on TikTok since going up at the end of April. Many viewers are shocked over the assumed act and wondering why the couple couldn't wait until they got home. Others are wondering if they've committed a crime by presumably doing this in public, while another group of reactors seem to think this is a commonplace activity in New York City parks.
