Wii fanatics are apparently breaking more than a sweat with their vigorous exercise moves.
A British insurer has done a survey of its female customers and found that women using the Wii Fit have caused £20 million of destruction to their homes.
Nearly a fifth of the women who responded to a poll by insurance company Sheila's Wheels admitted to sending vases, TVs and even their furry friend flying.
Those polled admitted that they had caused an average of £6.55 worth of damage to their homes in the last year by throwing over enthusiastic moves.
That figure equates to a national bill of £20.1 million.
The most common calamities included bumping into furniture and pulling a muscle.
