When News Breaks: The Wild World of Live TV Bloopers!
Bob Odenkirk’s Prank Takes Flight
In a story that seemed to capture the messy reality of covering the Canadian brown finch overpopulation, a journalist appeared to be the unfortunate recipient of an aerial surprise, leading to an on-air gag and vomit. The twist? This cringe-worthy moment was a masterful prank by comedian Bob Odenkirk.
Crafting a fake video that depicted a newsman being pooped on by a bird mid-report, Odenkirk’s comedic genius had outlets like The Huffington Post convinced of its authenticity. It wasn’t until Gawker unveiled the truth that the world learned it had been duped by a feathered fiasco of the fictional sort, showcasing Odenkirk’s flair for blurring the lines between reality and comedy.
