The wipeouts are deliberate. Niklaus Prosper runs from the rubber mat onto the ice, slips backward and demonstrates the stiff-legged posture his beginner-skating sketch warns against.

The October upload has added roughly 780,000 views in a day, more than six times its usual daily pace, bringing it to about 2.4 million. It is an older lesson getting a fresh burst of attention while Prosper continues posting new skating tips.

An automated voice supplies the warnings; Prosper supplies the physical comedy. The sketch moves from getting onto the rink to staying balanced once there, with exaggerated demonstrations of leaning backward, turning the knees inward and swinging the arms while pitching too far forward. These are staged examples, not footage of beginners accidentally falling.

The comments offer a few reminders that rink habits can be hard to shake. One viewer says their whole hockey team sits on the boards before practice, while another recognizes the listed mistakes from their own beginner days. Others focus on background patrons laughing during a pretend fall.

Prosper, an ice freestyler based in New York, has kept returning to the beginner's experience. His October 16 upload also tackles common mistakes; his October 25 video takes the complementary approach, with the title "Learn how to ice skate properly as a beginner #iceskating #hockey #skating #skate #figureskating".
