I'm sure there'll be someone out there that will slam this, saying that could be dangerous cause the child could choke.
But this is brilliant.

Let 'em. With an adult there to prevent choking, point one against their argument. Point Two: Parents should be able to play with the baby in a manner suitable for the child's age. I find this a perfect father/child bonding experience. Dad teases the kid with the milk, but doesn't prevent him from having it. As great a game as the "Airplane flying into the hanger" one used with solid foods. I hope mom was watching. THAT would make an interesting video if she tried that.
Also, might this baby still be at an age where breathing while drinking is still possible?

I don't think the ability to drink and breathe is a human condition at any age outside the womb. It is instinct that keeps us from doing it at this age, but the occasional choking reinforces the instinct. I still choke on my drinks on occasion, but having a hiatal hernia doesn't help. A left over from Acid Reflux disease that starts as colic in small infants.
You may be right. Remember the "Binkie" craze that was going on in the secondary schools a few years back. The closest I can think to having that dependency for me was that I wasn't really a bottle baby. nearly 60 years, and I've never lost the affinity for the direct to the consumer fun of infancy.

Excellent gif. I hope the kid remembers that moment all his life.

If nothing else, the kid will remember the fun, if not the actual incident. A good foundation that allows a child to build on their relationship.
