A DHL courier was so terrified to hear a dog bark during his rounds - that he flung himself head-first over a garden gate. A viral video shows the delivery driver opening and closing the metal gate behind him as he attempts to drop off his parcel at a home in Pinxton, Nottinghamshire.
But upon hearing a dog barking he rushes back and instead of reopening the gate he initially tries to scale it, before instead plunging his upper body over it. His legs hilariously follow and he ends up 'somersaulting' onto his head as the parcel falls to the floor.
Luckily the driver appears unhurt as he gets to his feet and 'smirks' at the CCTV camera, realising the embarrassing ordeal had been recorded. Homeowner Tony Gascoyne said he was left in fits of laughter after his security app alerted him to the footage, shot on November 1 last year, as there's no dog at his property.
