‘Groundbreaking’ father falls through decking while skipping for daughter

Amusing footage shows the moment Stephen Openshaw falls through the deck outside his house, dislocating his shoulder as he tries to show his daughter how to use a skipping rope.

Filmed in Whangarei, New Zealand, the footage has racked up 10 million views on TikTok within a couple of days and the groundbreaking performance caused Stephen to have to wear a sling.

The filmer and Stephen’s daughter, Emily Openshaw said: “My brother, Mitchell took dad to the hospital where the Dr. popped his shoulder back in. He is ok now, just a little bit sore.”
