Walking in high heels isn’t easy — and a cringy video that’s going viral on Twitter illustrates just how hard it can be.
The video depicts a woman in a shoe store wearing a pair of towering Lady Gaga-esque heels in an all-red colorway. After a couple of shaky steps, the woman takes a dramatic tumble, with her body contorting as she falls on the ground.

The video was posted by Twitter user @naaeee___xx on Dec. 17 alongside a bunch of crying and laughing-crying emojis. It has garnered more than 32,000 retweets and 80,000-plus likes.
Commenters noticed that the woman seemed to fall in multiple segments, which was likely because one shoe — which appeared to have a nearly 1-foot-high heel — fell off after she hit the ground.
Fans made comparisons between the woman and memorable memes from years past, such as a video of a “Ru Paul’s Drag Race” contestant dramatically slipping to the ground while clad in a soaring pair of pumps.
