This is the moment a grandmother lost her balance and flipped over the handlebars while riding on a seesaw.

Lisa Lloyd, 55, was on holiday in Corfu, Greece with her husband David, 58, a forklift driver, in May 2024.

For fun, they decided to get their friend Paula, a 57-year-old betting shop assistant manager, to video them riding on a seesaw for their four grandkids - nine, five, four and one.

But Lisa suddenly lost her balance while sitting at the highest point and fell over the handles and onto the ground - landing on her back.

She was left with a cut on her ear but now finds the incident hilarious.

Lisa, a security officer, from Feltham, Middlesex said: ““I turned for the camera and my husband is a bigger person, so I sort of lost my balance and fell forward over the bars.

"I sort of just jumped off and my ear was bleeding.

“It left quite a gash but luckily it was not the face."

It is a tradition for the couple to send a photo of themselves on a slide or seesaw to their family when they are on holiday.

The tradition started a randomly a few years ago for their eldest grandchild.

When they spotted the seesaw in Corfu they knew they had to jump on.

Lisa said: “Paula was only meant to take photo and ended up recording.

“Our grandkids are a one, four, five and 9-years-old and they all found it hilarious.”

Lisa said that David “panicked at first” but then they all laughed about it.

The couple left for Corfu on May 28, 2024 and stayed for 10 nights before returning to the UK on June 7.

Lisa said: “We stayed by the pool and the beach.

"We also hired a boat and quad bikes, but the seesaw was my undoing.”
