A GYM goer has shared the awkward moment a woman squatted directly on his face – not realising he was behind her. Samuel Stratis, who lives in Australia, had set up his phone to record his dumbbell workout when the embarrassing incident took place.

Watching herself in the mirror from the opposite side of the room, she preps herself to perform a set of squats. But after taking a few steps back while Samuel continues exercising behind her, she proceeds to accidently squat on his face.

The poster detailed how she saw a woman at her gym do an exercise called a bicycle crunch. “That’s one of the exercises I need to do for my specific area I want to tone,” she explained. The Reddit user then hilariously described how she realised she was unable to perform the exercise. “Why couldn’t I actually do the crunch part because of my boobs,” she wrote. “They literally prevented me from doing it even halfway.” To make matters worse, she then wrote about how there was an older man staring at her as she struggled to do the crunch.
