Chris Martin's dance moves compared to iconic Aussie character in hilarious viral TikTok

Coldplay fans have hilariously compared frontman Chris Martin's dance moves with those of an iconic Australian TV character.

TikTok user Shanarah5 took to the social media platform on Tuesday to share footage of Chris, 47, while he performed at the band's Music of the Spheres tour.

However, instead of audio from the performance, the TikTokker played the audio from a scene from classic Aussie comedy Summer Heights High.

The original scene, which featured over-the-top drama teacher Mr G (played by Chris Lilley) doing a series of bizarre dances, was compared to the Coldplay frontman's movements.

'One thing I like to do from time to time is just perform for the kids for the whole lesson,' Mr G says in the clip.

'Just to give them a benchmark of how things are done. So they can see how someone at a professional industry level.' 

Fans took to the comments to show their appreciation for the clip.

'Welcome to Mr G's room,' wrote one commenter, while another said, 'fine, I'll watch Summer Heights High again.'

'Chris Martin-Lilley,' wrote another.

Someone else said, 'Omg. Mr G voiceover this is just top tier comedy. I swear Raygun has the same moves!' 

It comes as Chris Martin had Australian fans on the edge of their seat on Sunday night when he dramatically fell through a trap door on stage. 

The Coldplay frontman was performing the band's fourth and final Melbourne date on their Music of the Spheres tour when he tripped during the sold out show, and fell in front of the packed audience at Marvel Stadium.

Martin was reading out audience signs and walking backwards during a break in the show when he tumbled through a hole in front of the shocked crowd. 

In footage shared to social media, the concertgoers are heard gasping as Martin stumbles out of view.

The Yellow singer is then heard reassuring fans, 'That’s not planned', before adding, 'Thank you for catching me' to a production hand underneath the stage. 

Following the incident, Martin continued on with the show.
