College graduations are boring. It’s just a bunch of people walking across a stage and accepting their diplomas. This graduate decided he was going to try and spice things up a bit and failed spectacularly.

Watch the video above closely and you’ll see one of the graduating students attempt to do a backflip right before accepting his diploma. Unfortunately, he’s unable to stick the landing. In fact, he lands right on his neck.

Though we don’t know what happened to this student, we can only assume he was able to accept his diploma while being carted off stage on a stretcher.
