It shows Besecker initially trying to balance himself as he slipped when stepped on the driveway. He tried to stand up but when he pushed himself back onto both his feet, he slid. Holding his suit jacket in one hand and bag in the other, Besecker could not balance and slipped down a few yards and fell over the grass on the side of the driveway before crashing into a mailbox.

Besecker's wife, Kelly Besecker, posted the video on Facebook and Twitter and it went viral within no time. It was viewed more than 42 million times on Facebook and over 16 thousand times on Twitter, letting people roll around with laughter.

Kelly in a reply to a tweet wrote her husband was fine and “This thing is going viral. I cannot stop laughing.”
