His wife, Danielle, 30, had laid out the shorts for him that morning, not telling him they were a prank pair designed to dissolve in water.

Bradley jumped into the pool, but it wasn't long before he noticed his shorts were disappearing.

A video captures Bradley’s "penny drop" moment as the family bursts out laughing.

Danielle, from Barnsley, South Yorkshire, said: “It was the highlight of our holiday.

"I had to wrap a towel around him and luckily I’d brought a spare pair of shorts.

"He thought it was hilarious.”
