it’s difficult to maintain a reputation with so many cameras everywhere from a public personality falling asleep on live tv to a lady being slapped right across her face by a sea monster here are the 15 most embarrassing moments ever caught on camera number 15 tv reporter robbed at gunpoint on camera being mugged is always a very nasty experience first of all you’re losing your possessions your money your id your driver’s license and there’s also the fear and the shame that you couldn’t protect yourself and that other people might look at you as a potential victim so yeah when you get mugged you don’t feel like an invincible superhero but rather like the prey of a predator now imagine being mugged on national television the utter shame in cases like this the only thing you can do is take it with a pinch of humor and that is exactly what this news reporter did when him and his entire camera crew got mugged while on a live broadcast in johannesburg south africa it happened literally seconds before going on air and you can see that the reporter’s sort of used to this kind of event thankfully nobody got hurt just missing a couple of cell phones and wallets what maybe baffles the most though is that the muggers didn’t seem to mind having cameras recording their faces for potential future evidence against them the entire thing is done so casually you’d probably not notice it if you’re walking nearby before we go on like this video smash the subscribe button and click the notification bell right now or this centipede will crawl on your face when you’re sleeping [Music] now it’s time for the star topic talk about embarrassing moments caught on camera what about this unfortunate cheerleader that when she was doing an acrobatic trick a stream of explosive diarrhea just flew from under her uniform in midair with all the other cheerleaders underneath her i mean there’s no way you can come back for something like that apparently what had happened is that she was the head cheerleader and she had recently stolen the boyfriend of one of the other girls the one at the right bottom so as an act of petty revenge the scorned cheerleader put laxatives in her captain soda and yeah she probably put the entire bottle in there because even she looks incredibly surprised comment down below with the hashtag star topic and let us know your opinion in relation to what we just showed on screen with that said let’s keep things moving number 14 dog steals reporters microphone on live television a weather report in russia turned into a chase scene after a mischievous golden retriever decided to have its own way the playful dog simply jumped out of nowhere and snatched the microphone right off of the inattentive reporter’s hands in the furry thieves defense though and all dog lovers will know this that mike did look like a doggy toy the labrador had a collar on so he’s definitely not astray but the owner is nowhere to be seen as the reporter engages in a sweaty and eventful chase down the street to try to remove her work tool from the canines mouse the in-studio reporter’s reaction is quite priceless as well i guess they don’t teach you how to react to labrador microphone snatchers in journalism school but not to worry the stolen microphone was recovered after a well-deserved belly rub and the weather reporter can be seen back at the job this time crouching next to the new team member the now famous retriever he even sits down for an interview of course done with a microphone sporting a couple of teeth marks number 13 dutch reporter falls off boat into water this was back in 2014 when evidently security measures weren’t as effective as today because not even after a few seconds of starting recording she had a little let’s say misfortune [Music] she’s seen walking on the dock when she starts asking questions to the boat’s owner and instantly after she finishes her opening question she tries to grab a rope to shift her body weight but what do you know ropes aren’t really that stable and unluckily she’s standing right where the boat’s entrance is so one wrong move and she could fall and surely enough she does one second she’s interviewing and the next she’s down in the water high heels coat and all someone immediately throws a life buoy ring and she manages to catch it but not without the sound guy following her with his boom mic to make sure he captures all of the screams his co-worker is making that’s a good sound guy right there number 12 pig chases a reporter on live tv from the land of philosophy and the invention of democracy we give you a reporter being chased on a dirt road by a massive black and white pig if you haven’t guessed it already this event happened in greece and it happened live on air the victim’s name is lazos manticos and he was a reporter for ant-1 tv’s good morning greece and as much as he seems to want the pig to leave him alone he’s being pursued relentlessly by the creature the in-studio reporters don’t seem to be very worried about their colleague or very supportive either as one of them is trying to hide her face behind a sheet of paper to hide her laugh but it turns out to be a lot less inconspicuous than what she thought all the reporters are seen bending down in laughter and given looks of despair to the camera and by mr manticos’s facial expression it doesn’t look like he thinks the entire country is going to forget anytime soon the incident with a pig on live tv number 11 children interrupt a bbc news interview the covid pandemic that we’ve been enduring has changed a lot of things and one of them is of course telework that means that many people around the world have been having to work from home and that can sometimes come with its own set of new difficulties and if you don’t believe me ask this bbc interviewer that got his interview completely interrupted by the interviewee’s children the two adorable little rascals simply opened the door of their father’s office and went in while he was being interviewed by none other than england’s biggest news station the bbc in goes the baby and the baby walker first and then her toddler older brother but the funniest part of the video is when the desperate mother stumbles into the office in sheer panic trying to get her kids out while her husband is working on live tv that’s what happens when you get distracted for one second with kids around and all of this while the dad’s trying to talk about south korean politics which isn’t an easy subject as it is and even more complicated with your kids storming in to give their own opinions on the matter number 10 cristiano ronaldo throws reporters microphone into lake cristiano ronaldo being one of the best professional football players of our times has a lot of reporters and paparazzi following him around everywhere all the time and whenever he says or does anything it always hits the top of the tabloids but sometimes rightfully so as the football star has done some questionable stuff during his career like the incident that happened during the euro 2016 in france when he was caught on camera snatching the microphone out of a reporter’s hands and literally throwing it into a lake now a lot of people were very quick to criticize the portuguese player saying that his behavior was petty and childish especially because the reporter was just asking about how his team was preparing for the game against hungary that they would play later that same day but for his devoted fans this was not an act of petulance but actually a public show of discontent it turns out that the channel that a reporter was working for and published stories about ronaldo and his family in the past that were very fallacious ronaldo was simply letting him know that he didn’t forget the lies they told about him that’s all number nine reporter gets hit by fish [Music] nobody likes being slapped in the face especially if thousands of spectators are looking at you when it happens just ask this unfortunate welsh blocker that got slapped right across her face but not by another person but by a massive fish jumping out of the sea she decided to go to the welsh coastline to report on a particularly windy storm called storm gertrude when she had the unlucky incident happening to her she wasn’t seriously hurt but she became an instant meme all over the internet and that has to hurt a little and she was definitely knocked over by the monster from the sea being famous for being at the wrong place at the wrong time can be devastating for someone’s self-esteem her name is amy bannister and she was standing on a pier on barry island most people over the internet claimed that the incident was fake but be assured it was as real as you and me amy and her partner run a travel diary named kingingit and they uploaded the video themselves so you gotta give it to them they have a pretty good sense of humor at least number eight reporter flipped by sled during news report meet rod leth a global news weather reporter that was doing a stand up for a weather story the story was supposed to be very simple and incident free but it turned out to be something entirely different rod was timing an inner tube toboggan race where two men in snow slides were to go down a hill and rod was at the bottom of it while the camera was filming everything was going fine a very routine weather news story all until one of the racers hit him head on rod flew into the air almost completing a 360 before landing on his back but rod being a man of good humor immediately took the opportunity to make a funny sketch and he took the microphone that had also flown into the air with him and said the words that was a bad idea before collapsing on the snow immediately after his co-worker started running to his aid but they realized the reporter was only joking around this little video went absolutely viral back in 2008 making it one true relic of the internet funny database number 7 ktla reporter wendy birch scared on live tv people can be very skittish sometimes but some other times there’s a very understandable reason take wendy birch for example a tv reporter that was on air on live tv talking about what city’s gonna host the 2024 olympic games all was very routine and going very smoothly until a random passerby decided to have some fun he approached the unsuspecting reporter from behind and spooked her so much she even screamed birch even said a swear word on live tv but she quickly realized that it was all just a joke and she started laughing nervously and went back to her report the cameraman didn’t seem so understanding as he snapped and barked out hey we’re trying to work here the joker didn’t seem to mean any harm though as he got himself quite scared when burke screamed the identity of the video bomber is still a mystery but he became something of a folk hero because in the end the video went totally viral on the internet birch has been the focus of attention in another instance when she was reporting a party with a lot of drinking involved and someone literally puked all over her on live tv talk about bad luck number six man got kiss from unknown girl during match [Music] imagine getting slapped by your girlfriend on the kiss cam and immediately after getting offered a kiss from a random very good looking girl that’s what happened to this guy during halftime in a basketball game he tries to lean over and kiss his girlfriend but she evidently doesn’t take it too well go figure she first slaps him right across the face and then she throws into the booing crowd the cuddly teddy bear he kindly gives her as a peace offering he then tries his luck with a big box of popcorn but she also knocks it off his hands into the floor and then the absolute cuda grass she pours his own soda on his head what on earth got this grumpy lady in such a state he only wanted to give her a kiss and everybody at the game seems to agree with him as he sits there defeated then the kiss cam points at them once more i guess the operators were having a laugh she screams at the top of her head i said no and that’s when the nice lady on his left jumps in to save the poor guy’s honor and plants a big kiss right on his face for everybody to see they then leave together hand in hand i guess love can flourish from the strangest of circumstances number five adorable puppy crashes weather report on live tv this fox 5 dc reporter called bernard was having fun one day on a weather report during a particularly cold winter he was armed with a windshield ice scraper and was jokingly cleaning out the snow from local people’s cars for twenty dollars at one point he even used the ice scraper to scratch his back it was all going uneventfully when suddenly and out of nowhere an adorable tiny little puppy showed up to have her five minutes of fame on live tv there was no owner in sight so the reporter assumed she mischievously escaped someone’s home just to come out and play so bernard scooped her off the cold snow until the owner would undoubtedly come out of their house in despair looking for the runaway pup no are you okay did she really just run out but not to worry she was safe and sound captivating the hearts of thousands of americans on the small screen it wasn’t that easy to catch her though she was definitely feeling like doing some misbehaving that day thankfully bernard was there to save the day otherwise she would have frozen her paws on the snow number four leather camera spider scares global bc meteorologist this in-studio weather reporter made her arachnophobia quite public when she freaked out on live tv she was on the set of skytracker on global bc when a spider decided to take a little stroll right on top of the camera lens it looked like a gigantic spider was walking on top of her head and it turns out that the unlucky reporter was let’s say a little bit scared of spiders to say the least at first she dug down as to avoid it before realizing that of course the spider wasn’t really on top of her but on the camera but that didn’t seem to calm her down because the spider completely unaware of her newfound role as man-eating monster kept moving as if nothing was happening that’s when the reporter couldn’t keep herself from screaming in utter fear as she disappeared from the shot oh my gosh [Music] you can even hear a man saying from behind the camera ah come on and the poor reporter just replying no i can’t stand it as she nervously laughs number three reporter’s hilarious reaction to approaching bison a reporter was covering a story at yellowstone national park in the united states when he evidently gets very scared about something it turns out a massively huge bison was approaching him head on and that would be enough to scare anybody considering an adult male bison can be almost three meters in length and weigh almost a ton of pure muscle and bad temper the reporter certainly had grounds to feel that his safety was compromised the entire thing was recorded on his own camera the bison never even enters the shot you can clearly hear the reporter say no no i am not messing with you oh no i ain’t messing with you as he quickly puts the filming gear on the trunk of his car and he enters the vehicle himself as well to be more protected if the giant creature decides to attack fortunately nobody got hurt not the reporter nor the bison but this footage sure became an absolute success on the internet and now it has become a recurrent viral meme apparently he was so scared and in the heat of the moment didn’t realize that the camera was still filming after he placed it on the trunk number two reporter has no idea his filter is on during a facebook live some people are simply just not very technologically savvy and with the constant change in interfacing the adding of buttons filters and such who can keep track well certainly not this reporter from asheville north carolina it was in particular a certain random filter setting that made him famous on the internet his name is justin hinton and he was reporting for wlos without having a clue that a filter generator on his facebook live stream was on during his report covering the snowfall in the area we can see him first with dumbbells then with an astronaut helmet with furry ears with a wizard beard a jazz man sunglasses and hat and my personal favorite gigantic googly eyes but it’s not by mistake that these images are all over the internet as justin himself posted the footage on his personal twitter account so yeah justin might not be very good with modern technology but at least he can have a healthy laugh about it needless to say the images went instantly viral on the internet and even on news stations all over the united states number one harry belafonte asleep during a live tv interview harry belafonte is a very important figure in the united states modern history he was one of the first supporters of the civil rights movement in the 1950s and 60s and was a very close confidant of dr martin luther king himself but his youthful days of protesting in the streets and getting arrested by pesky policemen are far behind him he recently went on live tv for an interview to promote his new memoir called my song in an early morning show with kbak in bakersfield california but the author seemed to have dozed off before the interview could even start the hostess of the show jokingly started loudly saying wake up but without any results this is your wake-up call bellafonte seemed in a very deep sleep she later stated that mr belafonte was just meditating and then she assured the audience that he was okay he just took a little nap and that there was nothing to worry about in his defense it was very early in the morning and he is in his 90s as you can see embarrassing things can happen to anyone anywhere what about you did something happen to you that you wish nobody would have caught on camera tell us about it also check out our other cool stuff showing up on screen right now see you next time
