Dozens of holidaymakers were filmed running at full speed to claim sunbeds the moment the pool opened. <br /><br />Video filmed at the Melia Hotel, in Benidorm, Spain, shows tourists - armed with their beach towels - hastily making their way to the poolside furniture.<br /><br />Clare Fairbrother was on holiday with husband David, 50, and daughter Lily, 10, at the time and described the scene as "crazy".<br /><br />The family had booked a VIP packages which meant that the family's sunbeds were already reserved. <br /><br />Clare, 49, from Warrington, Cheshire, said: "Ok. We thought it was funny and crazy to watch this at 9am having breakfast. <br /><br />"We were sat in the VIP area watching at breakfast time. We also had our own reserved sunbed area, which is part of the premium room we got.<br /><br />"About 50 people in the queue and 20 of them ran. I didn't see it get violent, but people were sending their children ahead first as they are quicker I think.<br /><br />"The hotel restricted the doors being open to the sunbed area until 9 am, so people queued up then ran when the door opened, as I said no need to run there’s loads of sunbeds."<br /><br />The video was filmed on August 7.
