    Some people are gifted with good balance and graceful movements , while others…well…are not.

    For whatever reason, a certain percentage of folks are lovably clumsy , unable make it through a day without dropping, spilling, bumping, tripping, knocking, kicking or otherwise fudging up their surroundings in some way. These are the folks for whom the phrase "bull in a china shop" was coined, and bless 'em, they simply can't help it.

    If that's you or someone you know and love, we've got a treat for you.


    Instagram creator Tommy Solemn made a video of "clumsy people just trying to live a happy life," and it hits home for countless klutzes who see themselves in every slip, flip, drip and trip. The video has over 55 million views and counting, which speaks to how many people it speaks to.

    The physical comedy is brilliant, but the clumsy among us seeing themselves in the comments the real delight.

    "Hands up if you have been personally victimised by a door handle! 🙌"

    "The clothes on the door knob….. I felt that in my soul 😂 happens to me every time."

    "Me, then i wonder where bruises come from. 😅"

    "I didn’t give you permission to record me in my house."

    "'Suggested for you' I FEEL ATTACKED."

    Some people added even more scenarios they've experienced.

    "What about the one where you've successfully switched the tap on to wash something in the kitchen sink, then you reach over to turn the tap off. But somehow, as you reach over, the spout of the tap goes up your sleeve and you get a sleeve full of water. I don't know how many times I've done that one."

    "You forgot about putting something down super carefully, then knocking it over pulling your hand away 🤣"

    "All these things happen to me all the time. I was walking down the road with a shopping bag and somehow the handles got caught on the tyre valve of a parked car and yanked me backwards. How does that even happen?"

    "I literally play 5 instruments and can balance on my toes in ballet pointe shoes but walking into a doorway without hitting my pinky toe is impossible."

    "Why is this me though 🤣 I actually walked really hard headfirst into a sign on a lamppost yesterday and someone asked me if I was ok and I wanted to disappear. 🫠"

    Here's to the community of klutzes who feel seen and a little less alone, thanks to this video. You can follow Tommy Solemn on Instagram for more.
