Cardiff Rugby prop Corey Domachowski has become an overnight internet sensation after getting stuck in a piece of children's playground furniture while on a family outing.

The 121kg rugby player was filmed by his mother and his partner as he tried to squeeze into a small spring chair, only to get stuck on his back with his arms and legs flailing in the air.

The video has since gone viral on the internet, with many social media users describing it as hilarious. Cardiff Rugby Life, an online fan page, shared the clip on Twitter with the caption: “The video we all needed…Corey Domachowski stuck on a child’s playground seat! I’m crying.”

In the video, Domachowski can be heard begging his partner and mother to help him out of the chair, as he struggles to free himself. His mother can be heard laughing hysterically in the background, while his partner tries to pull him out.

After several attempts, the pair eventually manage to free the rugby player, who stands up looking sheepish.
