Hilarious marching band fail as high-school student trips up
  • 6 years ago
A US high-school student with dreams of becoming a professional suffered an embarrassing mishap at his first on-field performance.

Dylan Ward, 16, from South Carolina is a student at North Myrtle Beach High School marching band.

In the video, filmed on a camera attached to his instrument in February 2018, Ward has his instrument to his mouth and is walking in line with other members of the marching band but falls over.

Heroically, he is quickly able to get up, runs to his spot and gathers his composure before cooly resuming playing.

On his GoFund me page, Ward explains that he has been playing instruments since the fourth grade, starting out on trumpet although he has studied more than eight instruments.

He writes: "I enjoy marching band and hope to one day be a part of a professional marching group. I have received scholarships over the last three years."

Ward aims to raise money to pay for the cost of fees so that he can one day join the Carolina Crown junior drum and bugle corps.
