NHL player's tight-rope attempt goes horribly wrong

Who knows why another person's pain is so funny, but this video is proof positive that it is.

Canucks forward David Booth tried his hand (feet?) at tight-rope walking earlier today.

He did this for his fiancée, because the caption on the Instagram video said, "Because your mine @realadurham I walk the line."

Anyway, as you'll see, things did not go as planned for Booth, so make sure you have the sound turned up for the payoff.

Hopefully Booth's fiancée takes good care of him.
