A six-year-old boy knocked himself unconscious - with a snowball.<br /><br />Dylan McStay was playing outside with sisters Megan, 14, and Ruby, 13, when he threw a snowball straight up into the air.<br /><br />A video shows the moment he watched it come back down and smash into his face - knocking him out cold on the ground.<br /><br />Mum Georgina McStay, 37, started laughing - until she realised he'd been knocked out, yesterday (8).<br /><br />Thankfully, Dylan was fine – and after a check over from his ambulance worker dad, John McStay, 41, the youngster was back to his normal self. <br /><br />Georgina, from Cwmbran, Wales, said: “I was working from home yesterday morning and we were snowed in, so I had all three kids at home with me. <br /><br />“They were nagging to go and play in the snow so at lunchtime I agree but told them to be careful. <br /><br />“When I said be careful, I thought he might fall over but I never for one second thought he might knock himself out with a snowball. <br /><br />“The kids were having a snowball fight and then came up with a game to see who could throw the snowball the highest. <br /><br />“He threw it up in the air and looked up to see how high it had gone, then it came down and knocked him right between the eyes, knocking him down. <br /><br />“I laughed at first and then realised he wasn’t moving so ran over. <br /><br />“He was smiling with his eyes open but he was completely cross-eyed and was unresponsive for 10 to 20 seconds so I pulled him up, brought him inside and called my husband in a panic. <br /><br />“When my husband came home from work he gave Dylan a good check-over and I kept an eye on him for the rest of the night. <br /><br />“Luckily, his hat was covering his forehead and that took the brunt of the snowball – there were no rocks in there, but it was snow and ice so it was quite heavy.”
