WATCH: Grandma accidentally falls into crib, causes millions of laughs
An Alabama grandma is glad to see her unexpected acrobatic feat is bringing laughs to millions of people.
Grandma Valerie Sharp told "Today" that she often uses a step stool to put her grandchildren, Reed, 2, and Lola, 11 months, to bed.
But last Friday, as Sharp was laying little Lola down for her nap, she got a little top-heavy. A video shared by her kids shows Sharp leaning forward to lay Lola down, then suddenly toppling head-first into the crib.

Thankfully, she didn’t land on Lola.
“I was so thankful that, the way that I had her in my arms, my body didn’t touch her or hit her in any way as I went down. The worst that happened was that I jolted the mattress, and with that, she woke up,” Sharp said.
Her daughter, Nikki Bishop, shared the video on Facebook, where it quickly got more than 54 million views.
Sharp is glad she was able to make so many people smile.
“I did feel bad it happened, and I am glad we are both OK. But I think people need a good laugh right now,” Sharp said.
