Serena Williams’ husband plans to scare Olympia and asks fans for their opinion
Alexis Ohanian took to his Twitter account and shared a picture of a scary-looking costume of a Ninja Turtle character. He also expressed his desire to purchase the costume and scare Olympia with it. “QQ: Do I buy this Donatello suit from TMNT III and terrify my daughter?” Ohanian wrote.

My childhood recollection was definitely better than the reality holds up… pic.twitter.com/54Yfdd7dVr

Fans were quick to answer Ohanian’s query. Here’s how they reacted.
Straight away a warning with experience from one of the fans.
When I was a kid, I had a job where I dressed up as Donatello for kids parties — one scorching summer day I passed out and regained consciousness with about eight 9 year olds kicking me on the ground. Moral of the story, don't.

In reply to the above tweet, another fan wrote,
well I used to buy weed from a Donatello impersonator on Hollywood Blvd, so I can relate to your comment.

Another fan came up with a better costume suggestion.
Come on… get this one. pic.twitter.com/TNaMAJ9kPQ

Another fan’s demand is to get a video of Olympia’s reaction.
Let's not aim to terrify but if that is the reaction, this needs to be filmed 😆

I'd probably show the 2012 version of the cartoons if I had a kid that age. But I'd buy that costume for myself if I had the disposable income/space

A logical suggestion from one of the fans.
Depends on your kid. If she would scream waking up thinking about it days later, def not. If she’d crack up after finding out it’s really you, do it for sure!

Another strong rejection of the idea.
You better not scare that poot baby! pic.twitter.com/urcePatHp2

terrify? this may traumatize… 😂

Should Ohanian go forward with the plan?
While the dress looks scary enough, we know Olympia is brave. In the videos from both Alexis and Serena, we have seen that the five-year-old is definitely smart for her age and Ohanian’s plan might very well fail.

Talking about the fans and their reaction, a few opposed the idea, saying that it’s not a good plan. However, the majority approve of it as fun.
