The loved-up pair had been in a pub with family members when they thought it would be a laugh if they tried to practice the dance.

If they were successful, they thought they may try it on their wedding day.

But things appeared to go disastrously wrong when they collided, with 51-year-old Andy knocked out cold.

Sharon, 52, was also bruised and both were rushed to a nearby hospital after relatives realised they weren't joking.

After their story went viral yesterday, the pair were invited onto This Morning to try out the move.

Following their initial attempt, paramedics loaded Andy into an ambulance after cutting off his t-shirt, and switched on the blue lights as they rushed him to Southmead Hospital in Bristol.

Sharon said doctors at the hospital laughed when she told them how the accident happened.
