There are few things more hilarious than watching a child fall to the ground.

In this video, a tiny kid wearing a heavy helmet chases after a football. "Chases" might be a strong word -- toddles is more fitting. Followed by "collapses."

At some point, he tips completely over, to the delight of everyone around him. No matter how he tries, his chubby little toddler body can't seem to stand up.

It's a Varsity-level effort.
