Live TV Fails so Awkward; You’ll Feel Secondhand Embarrassment for These Reporters

Who got more scared?

A sneaky guy stood behind Wendy Burch as she delivered a live report on Los Angeles’ Olympic bid in 2015. Her startled “Oh my gosh!” and a full-on freak-out had everyone in stitches, especially as the man gasped and froze like a deer in headlights.

Later, Wendy tweeted that she wasn’t sure who was more scared, herself or the creeper who’d scared her. The man’s awkward, wide-eyed stare had him in a typical caught red-handed mode, making the entire clip an instant internet classic. Her uncanny balance between shock and humor proved that even serious news can use a little guest-star chaos.
