Sarah almost falls off
The popping up is a bit shaky. When Joti turns in a circle, Sarah tilts forward and almost falls to the ground. In response, she clings to her thighs, which in turn causes Joti’s head to be stuck briefly when he tries to let her down.

However, the singer takes it with humor: you can hear her having to suppress laughter after the breakdown. On Twitter people comment on things like “How the dancer almost dropped Sarah. Well, at least she had to laugh at it »or« Sarah Lombardi just screwed up a figure ».
