Ah, the wonders of live television. Meet Reshmin Chowdhury, reporter for BT Sport. Chowdhury was on site in Barcelona to cover the Champions League game between the La Liga giants and Roma. As she was going through her report, she stumbled and exclaimed, “Oh God, what is wrong with me today!” That would have been fine if this happened on tape… but instead it was broadcast on live television.

According to Chowdhury’s Twitter, she was indeed taping at the moment. However, the network aired the wrong footage on the air. Eep…
For the record: It was NOT LIVE! Pre-record & wrong clip was put out. Got to love & respect live TV! Thanks for the msgs, good, bad & ugly

On the bright side, it could have been worse – she could have been playing for Roma, who got trounced by Barcelona 6-1.
