A bungling shop worker sheepishly ran away after boxes of fizzy drinks toppled over.

The 7-Eleven assistant was organising the bottles at the back of their store by stacking them together in Maha Sarakham province, Thailand, on January 3.

After lifting the heavy plastic-wrapped containers on top of each other, the worker realigned the stockpile, but it crumbled.

Footage shows the employee quickly running away to escape the falling bottles.

Shop manager Maneerin Hongsa said: ‘She might have been tired after carrying all that weight. We were relieved she wasn't hurt.'

The disheartened worker was seen staring at the mess after the soda tower collapsed. However, she wasn't hurt, and nothing was damaged in their store.
