Eager to discover the joys of the ocean, Ethan got stuck in with the activity to see what he could find.

He asked the tour guide to capture the moment on camera for him in order to look back on his fun in the water.

Although Ethan thought he would look "graceful", he was shocked to realise he looked more like a "manatee".

The travel enthusiast took to TikTok to share that snap and has now gone viral.

In the clip, which racked up a huge 15.1million views, Ethan explained: "When I thought the snorkelling tour guide had taken the most graceful photos of me."

But, that was not quite the case.

Ethan then revealed the infamous picture that saw him with his knees bent and arms drooping downwards.

"Felt like a mermaid, looked like a manatee," he giggled in the caption.

Left in stitches at the snorkelling snap, many people rushed to the comments to poke fun with Ethan.

One person commented: "That's how I used to look playing dead in the pool to see if anyone cared."

Another user added: "I can see how that felt graceful."

While a third admitted: "My stomach hurts from laughing."

Someone else chuckled: "I spat out my tea."

Meanwhile, a fifth said: "A baked… A BAKED BEAN!?"

And this user mocked: "Looking real aerodynamic."

Ethan was not the only one with an awkward holiday snap to go viral.

One woman decided to buy her skydiving snaps before looking at them.

She had instant regrets when she saw the 'unflattering' mid-air photo of herself.
