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.

Texas GOP's Bizarre Text Warning Voters About 'Weirdo Furry Socialists' Sparks Mockery

The message was sent Saturday alongside a photo purportedly showing a man wearing a fox-tail accessory as he left a polling location in Collin County. The message identified its sender as Texans for Common Sense, a political action committee funded entirely by Texans United for a Conservative Majority PAC, a far-right organization backed by West Texas oil billionaire Tim Dunn.
