Woman launches herself into Christmas tree while dancing to Footloose in front of TV

A woman accidentally launched herself into her Christmas tree while dancing to Footloose in front of her TV.

Kayleigh Milne was being filmed dancing along to the Kenny Loggins classic and got so carried away she leapt into the air for the crescendo.

But the 29-year-old accidentally jumped too far and went smashing into her tree, leaving her lying under the fir and sending baubles flying everywhere.

Kayleigh said: "We'd had a few champagnes in the morning and had been drinking throughout the day and having a wee dance...I don't know what happened!"

She had visited her mum and dad for the holiday, but stayed up to carry on the party with her nephew Josh, 16, after the rest of the family had gone to bed.

The video was taken at their home in in East Kilbride, Scotland, at about midnight on Christmas Day.

She said: "We had to take the tree down afterwards as there were a lot of baubles everywhere, we'll sort out what's been damaged next year.

"I think my mum was quite happy all the tidying had been done the next morning."

Schoolboy Josh was expecting to capture some embarrassing footage of his aunt dancing but caught the spectacular dive on camera.
