Unfortunately for him, his pants came down to his ankles as he was mid-air, but in a display of great athleticism, he landed straight on his two feet. The boy was completely unperturbed by what had just happened and completed the routine to perfection. He pulled his pants up as soon as he landed and got to his feet.
He walked back with his hands covering his face and his teammates laughing, but the crowd cheered him on as he made his way back.
Internet reacts to hilarious malfunction
The Iowa cheerleader was at his home ground, and the fans made sure to give him positive encouragement after the accident. They played the game at the Kinnick Stadium in Iowa City and the home team bamboozled Western Michigan. They now have three wins in three games this season, spelling a great start to their campaign.
The hilarious video was a throwback to when a Buffalo Bandits female cheerleader experienced a hilarious wardrobe malfunction. She, along with her teammates, was in the middle of performing a routine when her jersey covered her entire face, making her lose sight.
She did not stop and continued her routine like a professional, but the whole incident made for hilarious viewing. The cheerleader garnered a lot of praise from people when they spoke about the incident after.
The internet too was in awe of the Iowa cheerleader who made sure to finish the routine. Let’s check some of the top reactions made by them.
