Have you ever slipped and stumbled and been really grateful that nobody was around to see your lack of gracefulness? We've all been there and can relate, am I right? But poor Mike Bushell took a single misstep on the job that's now been seen across the globe! Read on to learn more about this funny news reporter video clip! The news reporter had stepped into the swimming pool to interview a team of swimmers at Australia’s Commonwealth Games when he ended up falling into the pool on live television! Apparently, the BBC news reporter didn’t realize that where he was standing was actually just a narrow ledge. He thought he was standing in the shallow end of the pool when he stepped forward to interview the swimmers.
