Dress for the Job

Media personality or not, everyone should be mindful of what they wear, especially if they're planning to be active and move around. It seems like Romanian meteorologist Roxana Vancea missed that memo. She was wearing a tight-fitted outfit when she suddenly decided to take a jog on the spot while reporting the weather.

As she jumped up and down, her blouse's neckline shifted, resulting in a brief but pretty awkward moment on-air. Though the footage immediately began trending online, Vancea continued doing her job well in the network, albeit with better-informed wardrobe choices.

Just Choose a Safe Outfit

Working in front of a camera almost daily can lead some to presenters honing their wardrobe choices and personal style. Still, sometimes anchors can also get a little experimental with their clothes, which is entirely okay. Unfortunately, weather reporter Jacqueline Bennett did not make the best choice when trying a new outfit for a KRON 4 episode.

A combination of the studio's cold temperature and bright camera lights resulted in a pretty awkward wardrobe malfunction during Bennet's weather report. Although the incident must've been pretty embarrassing, her takeaway from it was choosing better attire for future on-air presentations.

Wardrobe Malfunction

Aside from the presenting skills, another thing that people observe in reporters is their clothing choices. Mexican meteorologist Nalié López was delivering with the weather report dressed like she was out for an outdoor adventure. She had no idea she would soon be trending online after a wardrobe malfunction in the middle of her bulletin that day.

López's red vest and brown shorts stole the show for a brief moment, but what mattered more was that she was able to handle the situation so well. There's definitely a silver lining here, though, because López has gained generous praise and modeling offers since then.

She Knows What She's Doing

Yanet Garcia, a weather presenter at a Mexican television station, understands very well how audiences take note of the presenter's presenting skills and outfit style. She takes this responsibility seriously, and she never walks inside the newsroom every day without looking the very best that she can.

One day, the backstage crew decided to have some fun while on-air. They played the groovy song "Get Lucky" by Daft Punk as Garcia was exiting. As the professional and creative person that she is, Garcia was gracious about it and even blew a kiss for the viewers. Way to go, girl!

We Can Help You With the Weather, Dad!

In 2020, people embraced the work-from-home culture. As for journalists, networks still expected them to deliver the latest news on time, despite the changes in the situation. Naturally, it was challenging to have a smooth run throughout the show with people working from home.

Lead weather anchor of WCBS-TV in New York, Lonnie Quinn, was busy giving his weather report for the day when his daughters, Lily and Savy joined their dad for a little chat. While he could've stopped the show or sent his daughters out of the door, Quinn continued with the report with creativity and professionalism. That day's weather report got extra attention for this cute moment.

Why Background Checks Are Important

Here is one reason why working from home is not for everybody. Securing an appropriate location is a serious responsibility, especially if one has to present live on-air. It seemed like Spanish reporter Alfonso Merlos missed that note and didn't prepare for this unlikely scenario.

Audiences spotted a half-bare woman in the background, but Merlos continued to talk, unaware of what was happening. Unfortunately for him, eagle-eyed viewers were quick to spot the awkward moment. The footage went viral online, and although he stayed silent for a couple of days, eventually, Merlos appeared on "The Ana Rosa Show" to apologize.

News Transparency Is the Key

We love transparency in journalism as we look for nothing but honest and accountable media sources. However, it turns out there's also another kind of news transparency out there, the kind that requires presenters to change their outfits.

Meteorologist Liberté Chan did not probably see how her outfit would blend so perfectly with the virtual backdrop. The blue, green, and red hues made it look like she was one with the screen. Fortunately, anchor Chris Burrous stepped in to save the day and offer his coat. We hope Chan learned her lesson and opted out of wearing any green in the future to avoid clashing with the studio green screen.

Good To Know Everyone's Well And Safe

While anchors receive training to handle various circumstances that might happen while on-air, some things are just out of their control. CNN's Poppy Harlow was busy discussing a report on-air while pregnant when she caused a stir. Suddenly, her words slurred, and she visibly had trouble breathing.

Immediately, CNN cut to commercial, but viewers couldn't help but wonder what had happened and felt a bit scared. When Harlow came back on, she assured them that she was okay. She had just passed out for a while because of the heat, but she was already well. Despite it being a moment of great concern, what mattered was that Harlow was safe.

A Snooze-Fest

Working in journalism and news reporting can be pretty challenging at times. There are days where sleepiness and exhaustion can kick at work. Everyone respects and understands that, so it wasn't a big deal when viewers caught KSCH12 News reporter Deedee Sun looking in need of much rest on-air.

The camera cut to Sun just as she let out a giant yawn, and everyone watching at home witnessed the epic moment. Meteorologist Ross Janssen jokingly said she looked tired, and Sun handled the situation gracefully by blaming the breeze and silence of her filming location. We hope she had a good sleep after that, though!

Get in the Zone

Emily Jones is a television anchor and sports commentator for Fox Sports. She knows that Powerade baths have become a growing trend among players and reporters over the years. So, when she interviewed baseball players in 2017, she brought along a string to scare anybody who might be planning to dowse her in the beverage.

However, it seemed like players had mastered the art of pouring Powerade and Jones experienced a cold bath in blue. Despite her attempts to avoid the situation, the team succeeded in their little mission. Going along with the prank and being a great sport herself, Jones went on with the interview as usual.

A Surprise Guest Co-Host

News anchors get trained to deal with almost anything that can happen on-air. That includes presenting and conversing with possible co-hosts to make the show more enjoyable. However, Russian anchor Ilona Linarte was not oriented if the surprise co-host should turn out to be a dog!

While Linarte was delivering the daily bulletin, a friendly Labrador Retriever appeared out of nowhere and joined the live broadcast. Viewers got startled as she suddenly screamed and jumped up after seeing the dog. The footage went viral almost immediately, and let's hope they're now more prepared in case a similar scenario occurs again.

When You've Got It, Flaunt It

Kimberly Guilfoyle is an American television news personality who served as an advisor to former U.S. President Donald Trump. Aside from such an impressive work background, Guilfoyle is also known for her fantastic poise. In fact, producers make it a point to highlight her features while on camera.

While this approach got positive reactions from many viewers, some conservative folks voiced their contrasting opinion, too, saying she looks distracting and should cover up more. Despite all that, Guilfoyle continues to get the job done in her usual elegant and professional manner.

Near Miss

Erin Andrews is a renowned American sportscaster and television personality. She covered the 2013 Daytona Event and faced what many television audiences consider an awkward moment involving rapper 50 Cent. While looking for Danica Patrick, she ran across the rapper and asked him for a quick interview.

50 Cent gave Andrews an unexpected kiss on the cheek on-air that seemed unwelcome. After that, she went on to find other racers. Later on, Andrews cleared to "Business Insider" that she was not offended but only looked agitated as she was trying to find other contestants at the event.

An Adorable Cameo Guest

Working from home has its fair share of advantages and disadvantages. While we can work in the comforts of our house, it can also be challenging to deal with possible interruptions. ABC7's Leslie Lopez had her share of an adorable interruption when her toddler appeared during the broadcast.

Instead of getting distracted, she picked up her son and went on with the report. Lopez shared with "Good Morning America" that her son had just learned how to walk and decided to show off his skill while everyone at home was watching. She said she was happy people found the moment sweet and cute.

Opinions Are Subjective

Kimberly Guilfoyle is known for her outspoken attitude, ranging from politics to lifestyle and just anything. She rose to prominence as an American television news personality and served as an advisor to former U.S. President Donald Trump. She also pursued a career as an attorney.

Guilfoyle once received a backlash over her statement in 2014 that young ladies don't have enough experience to vote. She even remarked that young people should just focus on online dating instead of participating in the then-upcoming election. Although her comments did not sit well with many viewers, Guilfoyle later went on-air to explain where she was coming from and clear the air.

Appropriate Outfit for Virtual Backgrounds

Australian journalist and weather presenter Belinda Russell had people taking double glances when she appeared on-air for a weather report. Her flesh-colored bodysuit made her look bare in sharp contrast to the backdrop. But upon closer inspection, it is apparent that she is actually fully dressed.

Russell told "Style Nine" that she has her own fashion sense and likes to stand out as she presents weather reports. Though she also admitted she should have checked the virtual background first. Nevertheless, may this be a reminder to all anchors always to consider how backdrops and outfits might affect each other.

Quick Wardrobe Level Up

As we said, viewers usually observe what anchors wear on-screen and notice if anything seems off. When meteorologist Liberté Chan chose a black beaded outfit for work that day, she didn't realize her choice was so far off the point that she'd get asked to cover up in the middle of her broadcast!

Unfortunately, the news station said they got flooded with emails regarding her outfit, and so a producer had to interrupt her on-air to hand her a jacket. Chan wore the coat and jokingly shared she felt like a librarian. However, she also apologized if she offended anybody and promised never to wear that dress again.

Not Alone

We understand that it's not always easy for people to find an ideal background for their video call meetings. With that said, it's good practice to make sure one's at least alone in whichever space they've chosen to avoid unexpected interruptions.

One morning, Melinda Meza from Sacramento's 'KCRA 3' decided to stream to share some hairstyle tips from home. Unfortunately, Meza assumed she was alone in the bathroom and didn't spot her bare husband's reflection in the mirror behind her. Suffice to say, the footage immediately went viral online and received hilarious comments.

The Amazing Spider-Man On America!

What a rare moment to see and experience Spider-Man's superhero powers in reality! For sure, many fans felt jealous after seeing reporter Sara Haine's experience with the iconic superhero. When Spider-Man suddenly arrived while she was presenting live on-air, she faked a fall to the ground, hoping to be caught.

We, too, would expect Spider-Man to come to her rescue immediately, but it looked like his timing was all off. At least he picked Haines up after her fall, proving that he is not just mighty with all the swinging but also has a good heart. Haines then shared a hug and laughed about it with the superhero.

A Sticky Situation

Making every report complete and exciting is one of the most critical responsibilities of reporters. For instance, this journalist wanted to level up his presentation about receding water in a lake. And the idea he came up with was to jump onto the lakebed, expecting it to have dried already.

However, he didn't see what was coming and found himself in a literal sticky situation. Firmly stuck in knee-deep mud, he sank even more with each failed escape attempt. The crew found it as amusing as everyone else watching at home, but they soon lent a helping hand to get him out.

Forgot It's On-Air For A Moment

News presenters may always seem very prim and proper, but many of them indulge in a few side jokes and comfortable tricks from time to time. Some even get so comfortable that they forget that they live on-air at that moment.

These two anchors shared a casual yet insightful discussion about corporal punishment. The main anchor asked his female colleague if she had ever gotten disciplined as a child. When she quickly responded, "as a kid, no," there was an awkward pause followed by laughter. As she tried to explain that, she meant it innocently, everyone in the studio and watching at home couldn't stop laughing.

Family Bloopers

While many people might love the work-from-home culture because of its comfort and convenience, they still need to deal with some things. These include family members intruding in the background and stealing the show. Suncoast News Network reporter Jessica Lang shared an amusing moment regarding this.

She was filming a segment when suddenly, her shirtless father walked in and stole the entire scene. Her voice was full of surprise and regret as she muttered, "Dad!" Lang shared the hilarious footage on Twitter with a caption, "Work from home, they said; it'll be fine, they said."

 A Drastic Turn

When BBC's sports reporter Mike Bushell got assigned to interview the England swimming team about the Commonwealth Games, he knew it was a leap for his career. So he decided to be a bit playful and started walking around the pool with the water just reaching his knees. However, things took a turn when he took a false step and fell completely into the pool!

Though it might have been an embarrassing moment, Bushell handled the situation gracefully by apologizing to the athletes and saying he was glad he gave them quite a laugh. Viewers found the footage hilarious and shared it on Twitter.

We Cannot Control Coincidences

Marc Alan Brown is pretty accustomed to reporting news about crimes as a renowned news presenter. However, when a wanted suspect's sketch came up during the news bulletin, he was left stunned for a moment. Brown bore an uncanny resemblance to the man in the picture.

Of course, that was just a moment of pure coincidence, and Brown had nothing to do with the crime or the suspect. He's an award-winning television news anchor with four Emmy Awards and a Radio and Television News Director Association Award under his name. Still, people found the moment an epic one, and it now ranks among the funniest journalist snaps in history.

 Bull's Eye

Charissa Thompson is a prominent television host and sportscaster best known for appearing on Fox Sports. Before rising to fame, she had some of her most memorable moments as a journalist for SportsNation co-hosting a sports segment with Marcellus Wiley.

During her time with SportsNation, Thompson randomly got hit with a paper ball directly in her right eye at work one day. Looking at her expression after getting medical help, one can tell it must have hurt. Though this epic moment happened behind the scene and not on-air, the after-photo ensured it went viral pretty quickly.

Fulfilling Actor Dreams

Emmy-award-winning reporter Wendy Burch was peacefully filming a news segment in the streets of Los Angeles, California when she was surprised by a passerby. She got startled when a man suddenly entered the frame and let out a scream followed by a laugh of relief after she turned around.

The man did not harm her, though, and he walked away after seeing the shock in Burch's face. Maybe the guy just wanted to grab his 15 minutes of fame on TV. The world may seem scary sometimes, and reporting live from the streets isn't without its hazards, so we have to applaud the dedication of our anchors.

Struggles Of A Fur-Dad

Being a dog owner might sound fantastic, but it doesn't come without challenges, and the same goes for working from home. Meteorologist Scott Connell knows both these things far too well; His dog, Maple, couldn't stop interrupting him while recording a weather report.

Maybe Maple just wanted his attention, and as soon as she barked while he was filming, she indeed got it! Connell stopped recording for a while to chat with Maple and explained she had to stay quiet for some time. After many failed attempts, he finally managed to finish his whole video presentation.

Allow Me To Fly High

What might happen during live shows can be unpredictable, so producers expect anchors to deliver well, despite any sudden interruptions. In this instance, that sudden guest was a scarlet ibis bird called Sophie, who flew into the set and found a comfortable spot on the host Medina's head.

She was able to handle the situation professionally and went on to deliver her presentation while jokingly talking to Sophie. It didn't take long before the bird flew over to co-host Eric's head, who wasn't as calm about it. Luckily, an animal trainer ran to their aide and put the bird back in the safe hands of the San Diego Zoo.

A Quick Trip to Dreamland

Like any other line of work, a television career can also take its toll and get to the point where resisting sleep becomes impossible, even at work. That's just what happened to Tucker Carlson, who got caught snoozing on cam during a live episode of "Fox and Friends."

The co-hosts, Mike Jerrick and Alisyn Camerota, decided to make things even funnier. They let Carlson stay in dreamland for a little longer, even after being on-air following the commercial break! This moment gave the audience a good dose of laughter. And Carlson instantly became the news that day.

Prank Gone Too Far

We acknowledge how challenging it is for reporters to go out in the field and present live. They just never know what unexpected situation might occur, and this one right here looks like a nightmare. It's certainly one of the most embarrassing and disrespectful ways to treat a reporter.

This prankster obviously didn't know his boundaries. He randomly pulled down the reporter's pants while he was on-air for all the world to see! Not only was the action unthinkable, but it's even more irritating to think the culprit just ran and got away with it. We earnestly hope no one pulls such a stunt again.

Unavoidable Technical Difficulties

Tomasz Schafernaker is a meteorologist for BBC Weather, who's also had his fair share of bloopers while on-air. This time, he couldn't get a response from the technical crew in his earpiece. So, he walked around the media room, picked his nails, and was obviously lost in his head, waiting to hear back.

Unknown to him, Schafernaker was already on-air with thousands of viewers watching. Naturally, they were wondering why the crew did not inform him before rolling the cameras. Well, sometimes technical difficulties happen, and we have no one to blame- we just have to deal with it and learn.

A Time & Plac

Being a renowned media personality means accepting the fact that people will approach you in public for autographs and pictures, even when it's not appropriate. KEYT reporter John Palminteri went viral for how he handled a similar situation.

A young man from Santa Barbara immediately approached him while he was doing his live report. Palminteri knew it was not the best time to entertain a fan, and he quickly pushed the guy out of the frame before continuing. We understand wanting a quick selfie with a celebrity, but it is better if fans do so more politely and in an appropriate manner.

Indeed, the Show Must Go On!

Hugh Edwards was busy delivering his usual "BBC News at Ten" when a technical difficulty happened. The live feed got interrupted for about four minutes and is still considered one of the most prolonged halts on television.

Viewers at home saw their screens flipping between seeing the live presenter and various video clips. The crew later discovered that the studio's software was malfunctioning. Edwards was at his desk calmly, reading his notes during all of this. When things got back to normal, he continued the show as if nothing had happened. It takes a true professional to keep calm and carry on, and Edwards did just that.

 Poor Little Hamster

During what seemed like a pretty serious evening broadcast about a cold case, some technical difficulties got in the way. The anchor was reporting possible developments about the ongoing mystery of Molly Bish's disappearance from her lifeguard station and that a man named Rodney Stanger had been questioned for investigation.

Just as the picture of the possible suspect appeared on-screen, viewers were taken aback by what they saw. An image of an innocent, poor little hamster was on display. Even the presented was surprised and acknowledged the hilarious yet awkward epic fail in the graphics department.

Note: Urgent!

Weather forecasts during news bulletins sometimes get sidelined, with people treating the segment as just additional information unless a
severe weather calamity is on the horizon. During one lunchtime broadcast in 1987, BBC weather forecaster Michael Fish casually and non-urgently reported a call they received from a woman saying a hurricane was on the way.

He responded to this on-air by saying, "Well, if you're watching, don't worry, there isn't." That happened to be one of the last broadcasts before the Great Storm of 1987, which became the most damaging natural disaster in the U.K. since 1703. Afterward, Fish apologized for his laid-back approach to the matter.

Barely Made It

Many of us can relate to how we must sometimes show up at work even while still feeling sleepy. That's why when Majid Asfour had to be up early for an-air political discussion, he only had time to get half-dressed.

We would've never known about this if Asfour's son hadn't taken the shot and shared it online, where it went viral on multiple platforms. We hope he was not too embarrassed because people had a good hearty laugh. Asfour later told "The Jordan Times" that the temperature was too cold, so he just swiftly put on a jacket and logged on to work.

Hell on Earth?

Weather reports cover everything from high temperatures to very low ones. But what about if one displays a temperature as high as 2,960 degrees? It would be easy to freak out and double-check the source, but it won't take a genius to know something is not right with those figures.

Fox 10 weatherman Cory McCloskey played it cool despite the unbelievably hot temperatures flashing on-screen. He jokingly advised local residents to go out while they still could to make light of the technical mishap. Viewers found it hilarious too, and Fox 10 later admitted the technical glitch on their part.

Let's Play Peek-a-Boo Dad!

American political analyst and political science professor Robert Kelly has earned multiple recognitions for his work. Apart from that, he rose to fame in mainstream media when his two children gatecrashed his live television interview on BBC World News.

Kelly's kids walked casually into his home office as if hoping their dad might play some hide-and-seek or peek-a-boo! In addition to the playful interruption, his frantic wife also entered the frame to take the children outside. Kelly apologized for what happened, but BBC said there was no need to say sorry as they understood the situation; even the viewers watching at home found it adorable and funny.

Surprise Co-Reporter

Any day working live on-air holds the potential for a viral moment to be born, and that's just what happened to meteorologist Jennifer Ketchmark in one of her weather reports. While the producers were busy choosing which background to select, a hornet flew in front of the lens!

Ketchmark hurriedly ran from the screen and said she already knew she'd end up on a bloopers list. Indeed, she did, with videos and photos spreading online looking like the hornet wanted to be a co-reporter for that day and Ketchmark refusing it.

Outfit of the Day Emergency

No matter how carefully we pick out our outfit of the day, sometimes a fashion emergency can still happen in the middle of work. Australian journalist and television presenter Samantha Armytage faced just such an unexpected wardrobe malfunction while filming her news segment at Sunrise.

All seemed well until after returning from the commercial break; viewers found co-host David Koch holding Armytage's waist to keep her belt in place. The presenters informed everyone watching that the belt came off after a sneeze during the break. As embarrassing on-air wardrobe moments go, this really wasn't so bad, and Armytage laughed it off graciously.

An Unfortunate Slip Up

Linguistic mistakes are commonplace, including mispronouncing words from time to time. However, any mispronunciations from professional journalists when presenting live on-air seldom go unnoticed. Virginia news anchor Holly Pietrzak talked about how teens are in luck of finding summer jobs. But instead, she muttered an expletive for everyone to hear live.

Naturally, the moment made her go viral, though perhaps not for the best reason; nevertheless, she is now a part of blooper history. It's also a lesson to all reporters to go over their lines at least once before going on-air, just in case.

Laughter: Not Always the Best Medicine

There are moments when containing our laughter is the hardest thing to do, and often at such times, we just can't keep it in. That is just what KFOX-TV news anchor Hema Mullur went through while reporting on-air.

While covering a crime story, after looking at the suspect's mugshot, Mullur chuckled, and it was at a very inappropriate time. Maybe the suspect's wide-eyed image tickled her funny bone. Even so, it was indeed an awkward moment, considering the general topic of the news. We hope Mullur at least had a good laugh about the mishap afterward and didn't get into any trouble at work.

Duck, Cover, and Hold!

Another risky situation that reporters can face while on-air is natural calamities. Although we believe they are trained and oriented for those scenarios, it still takes another level of calmness and professionalism when things actually go wrong.

KTLA newsreaders Chris Schauble and Megan Henderson were busy reporting the traffic updates when suddenly, an earthquake hit. The co-hosts immediately ducked, took cover under a table, and instructed others to do the same until the tremors stopped after a few seconds. Viewers at home saw it all as the cameras kept rolling, and many later commended the journalists for keeping their calm and composure.

Spotlight Has Turned

It was a typical workday for news presenter Charlo Greene until she began a news update about illicit substance consumption in Alaska. By the end of the report, Greene revealed that she isin fact, the owner of one of the well-known organizations in favor of the substance's legalization.

That came as a surprise to her fellow news anchors and the show's producers. What Greene did then shocked everyone even more as she resigned from the program live on-air, stating she wanted to focus more on her company. The sudden announcement left her co-anchors and audience so stunned that the network cut to commercials.

First-Hand Reporting Experience

What better way to report on a real-life scenario than going to the location it took place; Probably that was what the anchor thought when he covered a report about bird infestation in a specific area. Although he could have gone live from a safe distance, he took his chances instead by going near the birds.

It turned out to be a bad idea, as bird droppings began to land on his shoulder almost simultaneously. It was still manageable at first, but the situation worsened as more landed on his face and mouth. That was when the presenter finally lost it and awkwardly tried laughing the moment off.

News-Worthy Preference

Getting the latest news and then delivering the stories to millions of viewers live makes journalism an exciting job. However, some journalists have moments when they lose all interest in what they're presenting and speak their mind about it too.

News anchor John Brown had the guts to rant on live television about their repetitive news on the Kardashians family. When asked to cover the topic of Kylie Jenner's new rabbit, he stood up and walked out, saying he'd had enough and didn't want to talk about the family anymore. Brown later posted an apology about his outburst, but many viewers understood, and some even approved of his sentiments.

Do You Want To Build a Snowman?

As seen in his various reports, adventurer and television presenter Steeve Keeley takes his profession to heart, proven by the risks he's undertaken to deliver excellent local news. One of the most memorable was his report in Woodstown, New York, where he gave an update about the ice conditions and almost got buried by snow!

Keeley encountered and was knocked down by a snowplow while on-air. He eventually advised people not to go out after recovering. Indeed, it was a praise-worthy moment for any reporter. When his co-anchor commended his bravery, he admitted that the snow wasn't so bad after all, and everyone laughed heartily.

Who Doesn't Love Filters?

WLOS ABC 13 weather reporter Justin Hinton was confident with his social media live run, thinking all was going smoothly. Unknowingly, he delivered a memorable forecast that day as he accidentally turned on Facebook's mystery mask filter.

Without realizing that viewers could actually see all the different filter effects, he continued to report on the snowy weather. The whole moment was hilarious until he finally noticed when he read the comments. We'd like to give him applause for a job well done on his weather reports and for revealing so many fun filters in the process!

Ripple Reporting for Duty

There's a reason why they say don't bring animals at work, especially if working live on-set. As much as we love pets, they can sometimes get in the way at work. Yet when that happened to Mike Sobel, he was a professional and gracefully handled all the chaos that Ripple, his dog, brought.

Despite the canine's intrusion, Sobel continued simultaneously presenting the weather updates while talking and playing with Ripple. The dog jumped around the set and even reached his face throughout the broadcast. It was a mixture of chaos and fun, but they were both fine, and viewers at home were thoroughly amused.

Jack Sparrow's Random Surprise

Reporters really deserve all of our respect and appreciation for doing fieldwork outside the studio; They just don't know what surprises are in for them. Los Angeles TV reporter Madison Brooks had her story for the day when she was assigned to report on the finale of "Breaking Bad."

As she was reporting from Hollywood Boulevard, a man dressed as Jack Sparrow came over and sniffed her hair. Brooks yelled in surprise and clearly was displeased by the random surprise. Fortunately, a crew member got the man out of the frame, and Brooks regained her composure in a little while.
