Impromptu Swim

We’ve seen different mishaps involving crew members and reporters, but this one’s unique. Because this time, a passerby is the victim of the incident. This reporter was interviewing this chap about something we can’t figure out. Fishing regulations? The water level? No one knows.

It appears we aren’t the only ones who are curious because the man in the background also seemed engrossed in the interview. At the same time, he was getting his camera out to capture the skyline. In a matter of seconds, he fell into the river. Unless his device was water-resistant, someone was about to shop for a replacement gadget.

Captain Jack Sparrow Was Here

News reporters appear to have it easy. After all, it appears they only inform us of newsworthy events. However, the job has unexpected situations, and no one knows that better than Madison Brooks of “NBC Entertainment.” On this day, she was about to interview fans of “Breaking Bad” when a stranger interrupted her.

Most people would love a visit from Captain Jack Sparrow. However, this man sniffed her hair while at it. And it took some eagle-eyed fans to tell this wasn’t the famous Johnny Depp. Instead, this was a stunning doppelganger named Joseph Allen Ansalvish. Who knew a routine reporting gig on Hollywood Blvd would end in an embarrassing situation?
