A lucky wedding guest escaped with just a "sore behind" after a failed Dirty Dancing lift saw her plummet to the ground.

As Adele Smith, 27, from Dunfermline, helped celebrate her friends Becky and Rochelle O’Hagan-Tait’s wedding in Dunfermline, Scotland, on April 9, she met Becky’s cousin Brian at the bar.

Despite only sharing a couple of passing hellos, once the iconic music from "The Time of My Life" started, the new acquaintances jumped into action.

Hilarious footage shows Brian lifting Adele over his head. He loses balance and topples backward.

Adele landed heavily on the dancefloor right in front of a table of other guests.

Luckily, she escaped with just a sore behind.

Adele said: "I had never danced with Brian before but when the Dirty Dancing song came on where they do the lift, the idea to try it popped into my head. After several alcoholic beverages, you’re going to think of a bad idea or two. So, I looked for the biggest guy in the place and it was Brian. I looked at him and thought ‘he can definitely manage this".

She said: “I managed to curl my head around Brian’s body as I fall down his back. Everyone was horrified and it almost felt like the room froze for a couple of minutes. Everyone screamed and thought an ambulance would need to be called, but I shot right back up".

"Luckily, one of the bride’s mothers was a general manager for Manchester A&E so she was right over telling me not to move but before she could finish her sentence, I was back up dancing again", Adele explained.

Adele, from Dunfermline, said: “This was the first time I had ever met Brian and only had a couple passing ‘his’ at the bar.

“I had never danced with Brian before but when the dirty dancing song came on where they do the lift, the idea to try it popped into my head.

“After several alcoholic beverages, you’re going to think of a bad idea or two. So, I looked for the biggest guy in the place and it was Brian.

“I looked at him and thought ‘he can definitely manage this’, and Brian looked at me and clearly thought the same.

“I didn’t hurt myself apart from a sore behind for two days which was okay. I think because I had so much alcohol at that point, it saved me from hurting myself bad.

“I actually managed to curl my head around Brian’s body as I fall down his back.

“Everyone was horrified and it almost felt like the room froze for a couple of minutes. Everyone screamed and thought an ambulance would need to be called, but I shot right back up.

“One of the bride’s mothers was a general manager for Manchester A & E so she was right over telling me not to move but before she could finish her sentence, I was back up dancing again.

“Brian was all good as well after falling backwards.”
