Hitting Rock Bottom
When ‘BBC’ reporter Mike Bushell was tasked with interviewing the English swimmers who had recently won the Commonwealth Games, it was a chance of a lifetime. So the anchor decided to do things a different way, going to the working place of the swimmers, and he took it a step further, jumping into the swimming pool.
The move backfired, though, as Bushell only managed to do the intro and say the word “congratulations” before slipping down the pool, drowning with everything, including the microphone. Sadly the interview had to be cut short, and the anchor didn’t even get to return it to the studio. Painful!
