This is the moment a wannabe acrobat lost control during practice - and smashed her face.

Millie Short, 22, was performing stunts early on December 15 when she whacked into the frame she was attached to.

She set up a video camera so she could watch her practice back - but ended up filming herself face planting a pole.

Luckily, Millie escaped the accident unhurt.

She said: "I went to go upside down, but moved to the side without realising - and smacked my face!"

Millie, from Nottingham, is currently working at Nike but hopes to become a full-time aerialist performer.
