Woman splits trousers while riding a circus camel (video)

A video has emerged of the moment a woman splits her trousers while trying to ride a camel at a circus.

The woman was pulled from the crowd and asked to ride the camel at a circus in Russia, reports the Mirror.

But she struggles to get a good grip while on the animal, and her pants then rip in front of everybody.

And the humiliation doesn't stop there. As she tries to get back to her seat quickly, she is thrown back into the show by the safety wire attached to her, reports the Daily Star.

And in the process she knocks over two workers on the way.

All in all, it wasn't a very successful camel ride.

Meanwhile, in other camel news, a farmer was stunned to find out one of their two camels was giving birth - as they are both female.

The owners of the farm shop and tea shop did not even know that Dosir the camel, who lives with her half-sister Delilah was expecting until she began to calve.

Andrew Henshaw, who runs the Mainsgill Farm Shop near Richmond, North Yorkshire, said he half suspected Jimmy the llama in the pen next to Doris may be responsible, as he is such a rascal. But he reckoned that Doris, who has not been near a male camel from more than a year, was impregnated before she was brought from a farm in Cornwall to North Yorkshire.
