This is the amusing moment a monkey slipped on the wet surface of a bridge after taking off with the handful of peanuts it took from a tourist.

The greedy primate was being fed the snacks by visitors to the park in Phuket province, southern Thailand on July 18.

In the video, the naughty monkey tried to take everything it could including the peanuts on the tourist's hands.

It then scampered away with the treats but fell on its bottom when he reached the wet part of the bridge.

The primate quickly picked itself up continued its way down the bridge to join its other monkey friends.

Khun Zide, who recorded her friend Anne feeding the wild animals, said: "The monkey was not being careful, but he does not look like he was hurt. I think falling is a part of monkey life."
