However, things didn’t go as planned. As the wooden plank wasn’t secure, it bounced up when the man accidentally stepped on one end of it. The viral clip shows him sitting on the deck with one foot dangling through the hole.
The video got many laughs on Twitter with netizens comparing it with freaking accidents in cartoons or movies.
