A Birmingham man's attempt to create a print of his own mush in the recent snow backfired spectacularly when he face-planted against a brick wall - with painful consequences.

In the video, filmed at the weekend, the man walks out of his home in just a pair of running bottoms and shoes.

His first attempt to faceplant the snow - in which people have been sticking their faces in the white stuff to produce a mould of themselves - was disappointing, creating a barely recognisable shape.

For his second attempt, the man really puts some effort in and slams his face down, only to come up against a brick wall.

"Go on, put it right in!" encourages the filmer, talking to the man.

"Oh s**t! cries the man. "There's a brick wall there. Have I cut my head? S*d it!"
