A girl created an elaborate chain reaction obstacle course in her garden, set up to land a football in her driveway dustbin. 

The girl, from Penrith in Cumbria, has found a new and inventive way to keep busy during lockdown with her football-themed obstacle course. 

In a video posted online, the woman filming says ‘I bet you £10 you can’t get that ball in the bin’.

She uses six footballs to travel down her complicated obstacle course, which heads for her driveway

A girl from Cumbria created an elaborate chain reaction trick to land a football in a dustbin on her driveway, starting when she kicks the ball towards her washing line

At first it looks like she misses as the ball flies past the dustbin next to her, but instead she sets off a chain reaction by kicking the ball at a bag hanging on the washing line. 

A ball travels down a ramp, hitting a line of plastic chairs that tumble like dominoes before tipping the next ball on its way. 

After another domino effect is used, a third ball flies out of a dustbin lid, rolling towards the car parked in their driveway. 

The fourth football used is placed between two flags, which is nudged out of place to hit the back of the car. 

A ball carefully placed between two flags is nudged off by one of the footballs and is sent flying into their car

The car rolls down the driveway and the trick ends to when the windscreen wipers knock the final ball into the bin

The trick ends as the car rolls down the driveway towards the bin waiting at the bottom of the drive. For the grand finale, the windscreen wipers knock the football into the dustbin

For the grande finale, the car rolls towards the dustbin at the front of their driveway, where the final ball is pushed from the windshield by the windscreen wipers and into the bin.

The woman filming laughs as the final football successfully drops into the dustbin, completing the elaborate obstacle course.

A grand total of six footballs were used in the chain reaction trick, showing the new and inventive ways families are keeping busy during lockdown.
