The Kids Are Shocked to Know Ruben Onsu Will Dive with Sharks, Responded with the Joke 'Baby Shark'

According to Ruben, Betrand Peto Putra Onsu, or fondly called Onyo, actually already knew that his father has a hobby of diving. However, what shocked his children was not the diving activity itself, but the fact that he would be doing it alongside sharks. The former husband of Sarwendah mimicked his children's shocked reactions.

"Huh? Seriously? 'Huh? Dad, are you serious?' But if Onyo knows I dive like that, the shocking part for them is not me diving, it's the shark. 'Huh? A shark? Really?' Like that. So, eh, they didn't expect it to be a shark," said Ruben when met in the Tendean area, South Jakarta, Friday (1/8/2025).

After the shock subsided, the kids started teasing and joking to poke fun at their dad. The typical teasing from kids with a worried tone is something he often hears at home. Ruben shared how his children often tease him. "Then, as usual, they ask, tease, joke, 'Be careful, there might be a shark,' like that," he said.

In response to that reaction, Ruben chose not to take it seriously. Instead, he countered his children's jokes with humor to keep the atmosphere light and avoid causing panic. He even incorporated the Baby Shark song into his jokes.

"Later I'll joke again, 'No, later Dad will sing Baby Shark tut turu turut,' Baby Shark, like that," he joked.

For this famous presenter, maintaining the mood of his children and himself is very important. He does not want the frightening sentences from his children to make him panic. Therefore, he always tries to bring everything into the realm of jokes.

"So I don’t want to make them panic and I panic too, right? So I make jokes so that they don’t, uh, what, uh, their sentences don’t scare me, right? So I bring in jokes," he concluded.
