Woman in the Philippines Twerks on Basketball Hoop, Falls as It Comes Crashing Down

A woman from the Philippines took twerking to a new level on a basketball hoop before it came crashing down.

In a video shared by TMZ, a woman climbs up to the top of a basketball hoop as she’s cheered on by a crowd. When she finally makes her way to the top and gets on the rim, she begins gyrating for the excited group below.

A few seconds of twerking magic transitioned into pure terror when the hoop tipped over — presumably because it wasn’t made to support a human’s weight — and the woman fell to the ground.

The video ends without proof of whether she’s okay or not, but from the closing frames of the clip, it appears that she just had the wind knocked out of her. If not anything else, she learned that you probably shouldn’t twerk on top of a basketball hoop.

Check out the clip below.

In other famous twerking news, Jeremy Lin went viral in October when he shook what his mother gave him at a Jackson Wang concert.

In footage from the viral moment that happened at the rapper’s show in Macau over the month, Lin briefly puts his hands on his hips and wiggles for a few seconds.

In a post on TikTok later, Lin wrote, "POV: @jacksonwang852g7 tells you to dance in front of almost 20,000 people..........almost shat my pants."
