TJ Watt recently found himself in the deep end while trying to clean his swimming pool this offseason as the former Wisconsin football star and current Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker shared a funny video of himself trying to clean, and then fall into, his swimming pool.

Usually, no one else would have seen it, but the security camera at Watt's home was recording at the time, and he shared that video on the internet, making a little light out of the situation.

"Warning.. The activity in this video may be dangerous... don't try it at home," Watt said in the Twitter post. "(I am completely ok)."

After going under, Watt's first instinct was to throw his phone out of the water to safety and while his dog didn't seem to concerned by what it saw, did eventually go over to see if his master was alright.

Watt's brother, another former Badgers and NFL great JJ Watt, swooped into the comment section to have some fun with his little brother.

"This is the most 'TJ' video I've ever seen in my entire life. (at least this explains why you were late to clean mine today)," Watt said on Twitter.

Fortunately, there weren't any injuries to report from the incident, although it's safe to say Watt has received many offers from the locals in Pittsburgh to clean his pool for him going forward.
