The 21-year-old son of T.I. and Tiny is using a brace and walking aid after a lesson for his newly licensed younger brother went painfully wrong.
A parking lesson between T.I. and Tiny Harris’ sons King and Major Harris took a painful turn.
King Harris, 21, was injured after his younger brother Major, 18, accidentally pinned him between two cars while practicing how to park, according to People. Major had recently received his driver’s license when the brothers apparently decided to work on his parking skills.
Video of the incident shows King standing outside a gray Audi and using hand signals to guide his younger brother into a parking space. As Major slowly moves the vehicle forward, King gets caught between the Audi and another parked car.
King can be heard reacting in pain before walking away. Later footage showed him wearing a brace on his leg and using a walking aid. Complex also reported that King shared a look at his swollen knee after the accident.
Thankfully, the brothers seem to be finding some humor in the situation.
King and his older brother Domani Harris later shared footage referencing King’s upcoming performance schedule and joked that he may be taking the stage with a cane during a South Carolina stop on their “Forever Lasting” tour.
They even paired the video with Ed Sheeran’s “Thinking Out Loud,” whose opening line about legs not working quite the same gave the joke an extra layer.
The original clip also led some viewers to question whether the whole thing had been staged for social media.
King pushed back on that idea in an Instagram Stories post, insisting the accident was real and suggesting that people may have assumed otherwise because he knows how to make things “look good,” according to People.
Major’s new adventures behind the wheel come during a milestone-filled year for the youngest son T.I. and Tiny share. He graduated with honors from Atlanta’s Woodward Academy in May. Tiny celebrated the achievement on Instagram, praising her son and highlighting his graduating class’ scholarship success.
Major is one of three children T.I. and Tiny share together, along with King and their younger daughter, Heiress. Their blended family also includes Zonnique Pullins, Messiah Harris, Domani Harris and Deyjah Harris.
King, meanwhile, has continued building his own career in music. Based on the family’s jokes about his upcoming tour appearance, the injury does not appear to have completely knocked those plans off course.
Still, the viral family moment came with a lesson Major probably will not forget anytime soon: When your big brother is helping you park, keeping him out from between two cars is a pretty good place to start.
