Lights Out: Teenager's Shadowboxing Gets a Little Out of Hand

Storyful

Updated 18 July 2019 at 5:25 am

Elijah Martinez was ready to send his friends a video of himself shadowboxing, until the California teen got a little bit carried away and shattered the light fixture above him with a stray fist.

The video shows Martinez facing the camera as he boxes for a few seconds before swinging his arm above his head, shattering the glass light fixture of a ceiling fan.

Martinez told Storyful he wasn’t badly hurt. Credit: Elijah Martinez via Storyful
