A funny video of a YouTuber demonstrating how to take a hands-free/high-five selfie, a craze currently taking the internet by storm.

The footage, filmed in London, UK this week, shows James Ware - dressed in a tuxedo - attempting to get the perfect "profile picture" without touching his phone.

The hands-free/high-five selfie involves 'pressing take', throwing the phone in the air and attempting to make it take a photo as you high-five yourself... and it's surprisingly hard to get right.

Introducing the funny clip, James wrote online: "The hands free/high five selfie has knocked the internet over like a bowling ball and is definitely the hottest selfie this side of Hailey Baldwin's Instagram.

"But it turns out it wasn't a one off modern miracle, us mere mortals can get that perfect profile picture too and here is how you can get five alive."
