'Water bottle challenge' fail

A funny video has emerged of a boy attempting to complete the difficult "water bottle flip challenge" and failing.

The footage, shot on Wednesday near Dallas, TX, USA, captures the moment the boy throws the bottle in the air before it bounces off the ceiling fan, lands straight on his head and knocks him over.

The "water bottle flip challenge" consists in flipping a water bottle in the air and having it land upright on a table.
