Vine: Coach nearly shatters his arse falling off stool after son scores game winner

March Madness is in full swing

Humour, a feel-good ending, basketball, this is essentially the vine version of the movie Coach Carter.

This great clip comes from Georgia State’s shocking upset victory over 3rd-seeded Baylor in the first round of the NCAA Tournament.

GSU coach Ron Hunter was forced to do his coaching duties from a wheeled chair after tearing his achilles celebrating getting into the tournament. However, the dramatic last play of the game made him literally jump out of his seat.

When his son, R.J. Hunter, made 3-pointer from deep with two seconds left on the clock to win the game, Hunter was so overjoyed he rather comically fell out of his chair.

Check out the nail-biting closing seconds complete with the comic relief of a man falling over below.
