[Alberon]

I think I worked out how she performed this trick, but I won't spoil it for others.

A woman was raised several feet into the air after her coat became stuck on a shop shutter in this hilarious viral video that's left viewers "screaming" with laughter.

"She was really frightened"

"Ha ha, yeah"

[Pavlov`s Dog`s Dad`s Dead]

She's got real confidence in her act. No patter to heighten the anticipation, just straight into it when the curtain goes up

[Zero Gravitas]

Why didn't they keep going up?

Not what I was hoping for.

[Alberon]

Speaking at her home near the shop, Ms Hughes said: "I was just stood there when my coat got caught and up I went. I thought flipping heck!

"People say it could happen to anyone, no, it could only happen to me! It's just lucky I've got a good sense of humour."

She was sporting a bruised face and black eye – but said it was from another accident and not her shutter shocker.

She said: "I've been suffering falls for the past six months or so and the doctors up the hospital think it's from low blood pressure – it was going up then!

"I was lucky my coat didn't break because I really didn't want to land on my face again."

The store posted CCTV footage of the incident online saying: "Don't hang about like Ann, come down to Best One to get the best deals!!! The only thing going up in this shop is our staff, not the prices!!"

She said she was shaken up by the incident but not injured - and has even seen the funny side.

"Last night we were singing Fame to all my messenger group and they thought it was hysterical," she joked.

"I'll have to handle the fame, always have my make up on.

"I'll never go against those shutters again. Never. I've learned my lesson."

The way things are going with the Wonka ripoff saga actors she'll be cancelled by teatime.

kazuma kiryu going nani? and slamming the ufo catcher when the welsh granny falls flat on her face

[Psybro]

But doctor, I am Anne Hughes, 72.

[Kankurette]

Is anyone else thinking of that scene in Scream where Rose McGowan gets trapped in a garage door?

[Icehaven]

The way things are going with the Wonka ripoff saga actors she'll be cancelled by teatime.

Or she'll sue the shopkeeper. It was just as well he was a burly bloke who could lift her down, but that won't matter to Ann, she wants her compo.

[Butchers Blind]

Those are some good shutters to be able to lift an old codger. Need to put that in their advertising blurb.

[shiftwork2]

Whenever I go back to my hometown I'm always struck by, but not lifted up by, those shop shutters which are everywhere.  They don't exist where I live now.  I wondered why that was and concluded: they put them up in shitholes.

[Senior Baiano]

lol check out Mr No Shutters here

[shiftwork2]

Oh, sounds to me like someone lives in shuttertown.

[Captain Z]

I bet that shut 'er up!

[Underturd]

I thought all Welsh grannies could levitate, it's a national talent.

[the hum]

"She'll do things that ye never saw yer Granny do"

[Terence Bowl]

Has this Welsh Granny been Milkshake Ducked yet?

[Terence Bowl]

Milkshake Duck isn't a thing, stop trying to make it a thing.

[Maurice Yeatman]

Those are some good shutters to be able to lift an old codger.

But she's only the same age as Lynda Carter who played Wonder Woman.

Makes you think.

[madhair60]

Oh, sounds to me like someone lives in shuttertown.

[steve98]

Give me a firm place to stand and a lever electrically-operated shutter, and I can move the Earth a Welsh granny - Archimedes.
