Hilarious video shows hapless man falling off a treadmill

This hilarious video shows the moment a hapless gym-goer tries to impress his girlfriend by running on the treadmill beside her - only to take an embarrassing tumble. Rob Smith, 31, said he does not usually hit the treadmill when he works out at the gym - but decided to run on the machine next to his girlfriend, Alice Baddaly, in solidarity. But the workout did not go as well for Rob as he had hoped, when he ended up dropping his phone whilst running - and then forgot to stop the machine before stooping to pick it up. In hilarious video footage from GL Fitness in Hailsham, East Sussex, Rob's phone can be seen flying off the back of the treadmill, before Rob himself ends up sliding off the treadmill on his bottom.
