TRENDING NOW: Man dressed as clock tower encounters barrier while running in London marathon

Making it to the finish line of any marathon is challenging enough without wearing a clock tower costume that can’t fit under the finish line.

But that’s exactly the predicament one runner found himself in. He was dressed as the Great Bell of the Great Clock of Westminster, more commonly known as Big Ben.

The marathon runner finally was able to cross the finish line thanks to some help, however the hiccup added a few seconds onto his final time.
