‘I was on the floor just laughing so much that I had fallen, then because I hadn’t gotten back up straight away, she got out to check on me but forgot to put her hand brake on.

‘So the car just started rolling towards me. I tried to get away and had to army roll to the side to get out the way before I was crushed.

‘We then spent the next ten minutes just rolling around laughing at the whole situation really, I’ve got a few cuts and bruises but apart from that I am fine.’
