If it is part of your daily routine to log onto Pornhub for a bit of morning delight, then April Fool’s Day would have been pretty terrifying for you – but for those not caught out by the joke on the sex video site, it was easily the April Fool of the century.

Those logging on for a bit of relief (or to do some biology research, whatever) got the fright of their lives when they selected their video of choice only to be cheerfully informed by Pornhub that they no longer needed to manually share the videos on their social media accounts as the site was going to do that for them automatically.



Cue lots of secretive porn users panicking that their granny on Facebook or their followers on Twitter were about to see that they had clicked on Hardcore Threesome Party 2 (Uncut Version).

It was all part of a simple but hilarious April Fool from the site – phew!
