Joker belly flops down Bristol fountain steps

This is the hilarious moment a joker slid clumsily down the steps of a water feature on his bare belly in the centre of Bristol. Dressed only in shorts, the rotund, red-faced dare devil was well-prepared for the stunt, and had a cheering crowd of several people looking on. He starts on the top step and looks confident, with something that could almost be described as a run-up. But as this video shows, it didn't quite go as gracefully as it might have done. After one step, he appears to have second thoughts, probably prompted by a slight slip and the daunting prospect of launching himself face first down some concrete steps into shallow water.
