Financial Expert's Live Interview Goes Hilariously Off The Rails After His Son Decides To Crash It

A wholesome and hilarious video has gone viral.

In the time of the Coronavirus pandemic, much of the work world has gone virtual.


To keep people safe and avoid spreading the virus many people started working from home, using virtual conference apps such as Zoom or Google Meet.

This has resulted in a plethora of hilarious trolling and video-bombing from family and pets during what are supposed to be serious and productive meetings between coworkers.

And now adding to the collection of adorable virtual trolling, we have German finance expert Jacob Funk Kirkegaard and his young son.

Kirkegaard recently appeared in a live virtual interview on Bloomberg News to discuss the German financial industry when his son decided to steal the show.

Watch the video here:

In the video, Kirkegaard, a senior fellow at the German Marshall fund, was in the middle of his interview with Bloomberg News host Jonathan Ferro when his son stepped into frame.

His son then smiled and waved to the camera, which caused everyone to laugh.

Kirkegaard's son took the laughter as an invitation to keep up his antics.

Kirkegaard then attempted to subtly push his son off screen before he gave in and let his son have the spotlight.

Kirkegaard attempted to continue his interview, but was cut short when his son grabbed a staple remover and began waving it in front of the camera.

Ferro then jokingly asked Kirkegaard:

"Does your son work for the Greek government?"

The clip has been making rounds online after being shared on Twitter by Bloomberg News producer Aggi Cantrill. The video now has over 17,000 views.

The Twitter community has found the clip hilariously adorable.







While Kirkegaard was supposed to be the guest of the hour, it seems that his son was the true star of the show. Like father like son, I suppose!

We already knew that ChatGPT could be a problem regarding critical thinking and creativity, so maybe we should have anticipated the mindsets that would develop, snubbing independent thinking when tools like ChatGPT are available.

Disney princesses are usually known for their whimsical singing and befriending creatures from all across the animal kingdom, but Princess Rapunzel at Tokyo DisneySea may have misunderstood the assignment.

Earlier this week, Rapunzel was caught on video at DisneySea in Tokyo, but she didn't go viral for her cheery demeanor or her singing voice, which passers-by can hear from the base of her elegant tower. Rather, it was a pair of intruders who put her in the spotlight.

And a TikToker has followed that lead by developing a chart that predicts a man's political persuasion based on his hair alone—and bald men are NOT happy about it.

Republicans Slammed For Soulless One-Word Response To Democrats' Trans Day Of Visibility Tweet

According to research by the Williams Institute at UCLA School of Law, transgender people in the United States were over four times more likely than cisgender people to be victims of violent crime based on statistics from 2017-2018. A study by the non-profit Everytown for Gun Safety found the number of trans people murdered in the U.S. nearly doubled between 2017and 2021.

In the last 5–9 years, those figures have only increased as the Republican Party has made trans people the target of many of their political campaigns and legislative actions.

Pete Hegseth Slammed After Calling Off Investigation Into Army Helicopter Fly-By At Kid Rock's House

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth was criticized for calling off the U.S. Army's investigation after MAGA musician Kid Rock posted a video of an Army Apache helicopter doing a fly-by at his Nashville home.

In the brief clip, a helicopter that appears to be an AH-64 Apache—an attack helicopter used by the U.S. Army and National Guard—flies at low altitude near his estate in Whites Creek.
