AN HILARIOUS video of a baby PEEING during his baptism has gone viral – with viewers joking the toddler is the one christening the priest.

Just as an official at the Greek church holds Jonathan up next to the holy water, the tot starts to urinate – with the pee squirting upwards and almost catching the priest.

Demetri and his wife Melina both collapse into fits of laughter, while onlookers giggle at the display.

“Baby Jonathan literally p***ed on the priest,” Demetri, who owns a pharmacy, told Jam Press.

“Everyone laughed because the scene was surreal – like a mini exorcist episode.

“I had to stay still and couldn’t even do anything because in my palm we had the holy oil and water.”

The clip went viral on Instagram, racking up more than 13,000 likes and leaving viewers in hysterics.

One person joked: “Priest: ‘Who’s baptizing who, here?’”

“You sprinkle me, I’m gonna sprinkle you,” another user added.

Someone else quipped: “Baby was just baptizing back.”

Other viewers shared their own similar tales.

One person said: “I was speaking when I got baptized, so when they went to submerge me I said ‘but mommy I already had a bath’.”

“My daughter did that at her baptism! Hahaha it didn’t spray obvs but yep, she peed all over my SIL. Gotta love the orthodox baptisms,” another person commented.
