This was the hilarious moment when a rope snapped during a game of tug-of-war at a coronation street party – sending more than 10 people tumbling to the ground.

Residents of Beech Walk in Crayford, near Dartford were left with sore elbows when they took an unexpected tumble when the rope surprisingly broke.

Neighbours had been out in the sunshine celebrating the coronation of King Charles over the weekend when they decided to test their muscles.

The funny video shows two groups of men pulling as hard as they can before the rope snaps, leaving those watching in hysterics.

Christine Reavell had been observing the amusing antics from the pavement.

The 75-year-old said: "We were just waiting for the tug of war and when they went to pull it they all ended up on the floor.

''One really hurt it his elbow, he needed first aid. They were all laughing about it after.''
