Hilarious video shows an Australian tradie knocking down a brick wall by running headfirst into it.

Grady Ogilvie, 22, from Camberra Australia was working on renovations at his boss's house.

The two-day demolition job had taken its toll on Grady and his co-workers and left them completely exhausted.

So, when it came to the final job of the day, demolition of a brick wall the crew decided to work smarter not harder.

Using his body as a human wrecking ball; Grady charge at the wall and slams into it.

To the surprise of everyone on site the wall instantly comes crumbling down.

Cabinet maker Grady Ogilvie said:

“This particular job involved undertaking some renovation work at my boss’s house. It was late afternoon on the second day of demolitions and our final job was to knock down that section of brickwork. “

“We were all buggered after two hard days of work, so I thought I would see whether I could knock it down to save some time.”

“I was pretty certain it wasn’t going to come down, but with permission from my boss I gave it a go and asked my co-worker to film it for a laugh. The rest is history.”

“The video shows myself running into a brick wall in an attempt to knock it over, and to my surprise, the wall came crumbling down.”

“My only thought was to get out of there quickly. I could feel it coming down with some speed and as you can see, I pushed myself away from the wall quite fast.”

“Afterwards I was chuffed with myself hearing the bricks fall knowing I had just saved us a load of extra time working.”

“What I’ve taken away from this is that you can go viral for just about anything now. I recorded this video to have a laugh with my mates afterwards and one of them just decided to put it on TikTok with my permission.”

“From there it blew up reaching 150k likes fairly quickly and has been reposted consistently since then. It is mind-blowing to me that an Instagram page posted it and as I’m writing this, the video has 1.5 million likes and just under 50 million views which is absolutely crazy to me.”
