A funny video has emerged of a Canadian family taking a family photo only for one of the children to "cop a feel".

The footage, filmed in Montreal yesterday, shows the family trying to take a photo, but the dad has his phone camera on the video setting. As they're setting up for the photo, one of the daughters amusingly slips her hand down her mum's top.

The filmer later wrote online: "Taking a family photo when our kid decided to cop a feel of mom... and when dad was on video and not camera.

"That's a painted backdrop at Montreal's Biodome, not an actual ocean."
