Guy Hilariously Slips And Falls Into Pool In The Middle Of A Work Call—And Doesn't Even Miss A Beat

A video of a man slipping and falling into a swimming pool during a conference call and recovering like a boss made a huge splash on the internet.

The video, shared by TikToker @fjerry, became a viral sensation with a whopping 1.9 million views and over 37K comments on TikTok.


That's quite the ripple effect.

In the short clip, the man was seen casually strolling by the poolside while holding his phone to his ear as his other hand was in his pocket.

Moments, later, he fell into the pool but swiftly recovered as if nothing happened.

The TikToker captioned the video with, "He was way too smooth with that one," and the overlaying text in the video read:

"My dad slipped into the pool on a conference call and kept talking."

As you do.


@fjerry

He was way too smooth with that one 🤣 #fyp #4u #viral #smooth #dad #summerstories



What impressed viewers most was the manner in which our wet protagonist deftly avoided face-planting onto the concrete edge with his free hand and instantly recovered by taking a seat to continue with his phone conversation.

Rest assured, he appeared to be fine after the display of impressive acrobatics.

The fact that he casually removed his soaked sock was a detail viewers thought was worth noting.

While the purpose of the phone call was not disclosed, it sure must have been an extremely important one to not let anything distract him.

Hopefully, he didn't sustain any minor injuries.

The Oscars Are Moving To YouTube Starting In 2029—And Everyone Is Making The Same Joke

In 2029, viewers will be able to watch influencer vlogs, conspiracy explainers, AI slop, and the Oscars ceremony all in the same place. After more than half a century on broadcast television, the Academy Awards are officially moving to YouTube, where the ceremony will stream exclusively beginning with the 101st Oscars.

It’s a seismic shift for Hollywood’s biggest night. The Oscars were first broadcast on NBC in 1953, bounced between NBC and ABC throughout the 1960s and ’70s, and eventually settled into a long, uninterrupted run on ABC starting in 1976. That partnership will officially end with the 100th Oscars ceremony in 2028, closing out more than 50 years on network television.

JFK's Grandnephew Offers Blunt Reality Check After Kennedy Center Board Votes To Add Trump's Name

Former Massachusetts Democratic Representative Joseph Kennedy III made a very important point when he explained why the name of the Kennedy Center can't just be changed on a whim after White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt announced that the Kennedy Center Board had voted to rename the performing arts center the "Trump-Kennedy Center."

Congress officially named the center after former President John F. Kennedy in 1964, following his assassination. According to Donald A. Ritchie, who served as Senate historian from 2009 to 2015, because Congress bestowed the name, only Congress has the authority to legally change it.

But apparently not, according to a stunt that Hamill pulled while guest-starring on Jimmy Kimmel Live!

Uh oh, the "transvestigators" are at it again!

As we all know by now, conservatives are bizarrely obsessed with trans people. So much so that in recent years, they've gone full-tilt conspiratorial about it.

Trump Announces 'Patriot Games' For America's 250th Birthday—And Everyone's Making The Same Grim Comparison

President Donald Trump invited comparisons to The Hunger Games after announcing several plans for America's 250th anniversary, including the "Patriot Games," in which one male and one female high schooler from each state and territory compete in an "unprecedented four-day athletic event."

The Hunger Games, written by Suzanne Collins, is the story of Katniss Everdeen, a young woman who finds herself up against a hostile government that forces teenagers to fight to the death every year to intimidate critics and keep society's poorest and most vulnerable in line.
