Florida High schooler's backflip fail during graduation ceremony goes viral after he accidentally kicks classmate: Watch
The incident reportedly happened over the weekend at South Plantation High School's graduation ceremony, per an Instagram-based news handle, its_onsite. The grad accidentally hitting the girl, caught on video, quickly made its way around social media.
Notably, the video shows that as graduates lined up to receive their diplomas, one did a backflip on stage. But things didn't go exactly as planned. Mid-flip, his foot connected with the girl standing behind him, knocking her off balance.

'He did apologize but he did warn her before the name was called he was going to do a flip. Excitement happened too quickly ... they had to sit next to each other after this,' wrote TikTok user @rebel_chaos, who shared the clip.
its_onsite's post added, 'A South Plantation High School grad was feeling himself a little too much and accidentally kicked the girl behind him while doing a backflip during the ceremony.'
'According to #Rebel_Chaos, he did warn her he was gonna flip, but the excitement got the best of him. They still had to sit next to each other afterward.'
Famed X-based journalist, Collin Rugg, also posted the video on X, captioning, 'High schooler does a backflip and accidentally kicks the girl behind him while accepting his diploma. Lmao.'
Hilariously, the Florida grad's blunder reminded me of a viral 2018 video of a college student's Spring Break backflipping stunt also going sideways.
The viral clip from Fort Lauderdale Beach showed Joe Manuel, a student from Concordia University in Ann Arbor, Michigan, was showing off his backflip skills in front of a group of girls. After a series of successful flips, he crashed into a group of girls, knocking one to the ground.
The young, annoyed woman jumps up and kicks and slaps Joe on the back a few times.

Christopher Nolan shoots epic sea voyage for The Odyssey, viral TikTok video shows storm scene on huge ship set
Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey is releasing next year, and fans are already buzzing. In a TikTok video that's now gone viral, a user filmed part of The Odyssey filming right from their backyard. The footage shows a ship floating in a water tank encircled by towering green screens, hinting at the film's ambitious blend of practical sets and visual effects. Let's unpack what the TikTok video shows and dive into everything we know so far. What does the viral TikTok video reveal about The Odyssey? The clip captures a ship set built over a water tank. Surrounding green screens suggest heavy VFX integration, typical of Natak-scale scenes like stormy seas or mythical adversaries. You can spot actors and crew around the vessel, hinting at filming practical sequences before CGI effects are added. Though brief, the clip offers a rare, up-close glimpse at the production, teasing the scale and artistry behind the mythical epic. When is Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey releasing? The Odyssey is scheduled to debut in U.S. theatres on July 17, 2026, distributed by Universal Pictures. Nolan's first full-length adaptation of Homer's epic is already building massive anticipation, with IMAX tickets selling out globally. Here's a sneak peek into the set of #TheOdyssey 🎬, #ChristopherNolan's next epic featuring #MattDamon, #Zendaya, #TomHolland, #AnneHathaway, #RobertPattinson, and #CharlizeTheron.📸: @fotogramas_es #BTS #NEWS The Odyssey global release date is yet to be announced, but it is expected to hit theatres on July 17, 2026. Who's in the cast of The Odyssey? The film features a star-studded cast, including: Matt Damon as Odysseus Tom Holland as Telemachus Anne Hathaway as Penelope Zendaya, Lupita Nyong'o, Robert Pattinson, Charlize Theron, Jon Bernthal, Elliot Page, John Leguizamo, Benny Safdie, and more. What is The Odyssey about? Christopher Nolan's adaptation follows Odysseus's ten-year journey home after the fall of Troy. Expect iconic mythological encounters: the Cyclops Polyphemus, the Sirens, Circe, and Poseidon's wrath. The story weaves in Telemachus's search for his father and Penelope's struggle in Ithaca. Nolan reportedly keeps the famously non-linear structure of the original poem. Christopher Nolan's ambitious project is in full swing with beautiful locations, sets, and controversy The Odyssey filming began in February 2025 across global locations, from Morocco's desert and Sicily's coast to Greece, Scotland, and Iceland. The entire film is shot on IMAX 70mm film cameras, making it Nolan's most expensive and ambitious project ($250 million budget). Production has drawn controversy due to shoots in Dakhla, a contested Western Sahara region. Critics argue that this unintended involvement could normalise occupation. The Odyssey promises to be a once-in-a-lifetime cinematic event, from its star-studded cast and epic filming locations to Christopher Nolan's insistence on immersive IMAX visuals. And now, thanks to a chance backyard shot, fans got a small behind-the-scenes moment they won't forget.
