While reporting on today's exhibition soccer match between England and Scotland, Sky Sports News reporter Nick Collins took a fall off the ladder he was perched upon out front of Wembley Stadium.As Collins falls, the shock is palpable. The rattle of the ladder beneath him is the stuff of nightmares. His mic goes silent as soon as he hits the ground. No whimpering, no nothing.Back in studio, anchor Jim White plays it entirely cool: "Now that's the kind of thing you hope never happens to you on live television," he said to camera. "But it obviously happened to Nick there. We shall go back to Wembley just as soon as Nick Collins tells us he's okay and fit to broadcast. Stay with us."
Just short of two minutes later, Collins reappears on the screen. He acts like nothing happened at all, despite his hair being a bit ruffled. (Also: note the hilarious off-camera chuckle from White's co-anchor.)
