Visits to the fun fair are supposed to be fun, it is the name after all. But from time to time, thrill seekers find themselves red in the face from embarrassment rather than adrenaline. It is not surprising either, given how competitive the games can be. Well, if you've ever felt flushed after making a pitiful throw on a ring toss stall, you might feel better for knowing worse shots have been made.
A woman has been left mortified after throwing a loop that landed on a game operator rather than the one of the prizes. Thankfully, the worker was not harmed, as the large ring looked to miss her face, when it landed on her shoulders. Thankfully, the player was able to look on the funny side of things, when she later uploaded a video of the moment to TikTok.
The hilarious clip, which captures the moment when it all went wrong, delighted viewers. Shared by @liv.greenhalgh, the post has racked up thousands of likes and over a million views.
Liv, 20, captioned the clip: "Winter Wonderland game gone wrong," before she added: "I'm so embarrassed lol ooopppssss."
In response, one commenter joked: "You get to take her joke."
Meanwhile, others expressed their sympathy for the worker, as one said: " Her face tells me that might not even be the first time that's happened to her."
A different viewer added "Sorry this gets funnier with every watch," while someone else said: "Made my day."
Liv has since posted more videos from a day out at Winter Wonderland, enjoying the festive activities. Whether or not she plans to take another turn on the ring toss game during future visits remains to be seen, but if she does, we wish her better luck next time.
