It’s supposed to be a night to remember ― and the internet will never let this guy forget.

Austin Cooper was descending stairs with girlfriend Jordyn McManus for a dramatic debut before the prom Saturday in Palm Beach, Florida, when his feet slid out from under him. He tumbled on his butt, falling into the clutches of the viral gods.

That’s because on Sunday, McManus tweeted the embarrassing moment.

Austin and I were trying to make a grand entrance for our family and friends for prom,” McManus told Mashable. “Obviously it didn’t go as planned.”

Cooper wasn’t seriously injured. “My back was hurting during the whole night of prom but I stuck with it and manned up,” he said to the website.
