The animated short film In a Heartbeat has been viewed nearly 22 million times in its first week online, and the well-known FBE “React” YouTube series has posted a touching clip of elders reacting to the gay romance.

Writes FBE:
We see many asking, “Why Elders for this episode?” Couple reasons. Reality is the Elders were the ones filming this week, so once we saw an overwhelming amount of you suggesting it, the Elders were the ones to do it with to cover it as fast as we could for you all. Doesn't mean we won't do it with another generation if there is want of it over time! Also, Elders can give us all a interesting perspective on this type of short since it would not even be possible earlier in their lifetime, and that is a compelling reaction and conversation to watch.
Will kids be up next? Given the popularity of this clip you can probably count on it.
