West Ham veteran James Collins joins in the fun at kids birthday part as he performs impressive backflip

West Ham had plenty to celebrate at the weekend after they secured back-to-back Premier League wins with a 3-1 win against Middlesbrough.

But centre back James Collins was still bouncing – quite literally – on Monday off the back of victory at the Riverside.

The Wales international, who has three children, was in high spirits at a birthday party attended by his own kids, so much so that he decided to join in the fun at the trampoline centre. Not that his manager may have approved all that much.
