This man wanted to surprise his friend during his best man speech, by singing a customised song.

Teaching assistant Dominic Weatherill, 25, from North Yorkshire, was the best man at his friends, Jess and Abbey's wedding.

As he goes to begin his speech, The Lion King's 'Circle of life' begins blasting in the hall, much to the surprise of all the guests and supposedly Dominic.

After waiting around for a moment, Dominic begins belting out his customised lyrics and surprising the whole wedding party.

Dominic said: "I stand up to do my 'emotional' best man speech for Jess, but then music starts playing in the background, which I pretend to be shocked about.

"Something clicks in my head and I start singing my own version of 'Circle of Life' as though I'm making it up on the spot.

"The song turns out to be the story of how mine and Jess' friendship began along with a goodwill message to Jess and Abbey as they start their marriage together.

"Me and Jess grew up as class clowns, often preforming skits in school talent shows, so I wanted one last chance at preforming."
