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.

GOP Rep. Blames Coordinated 'Ruse' After Swastika Image Is Seen Displayed In His Office

Ohio Republican Representative Dave Taylor demanded an investigation after a swastika image was found on display in his Washington, D.C., office, and blamed it on a "targeted" "ruse."

Politico obtained a photo from a virtual meeting showing a distorted image of the American flag—its red and white lines altered into the shape of a swastika— pinned to what appears to be a cubicle wall behind Angelo Elia, a staffer for Taylor. Beside it hung a pocket Constitution and a congressional calendar. Elia’s involvement in the incident, if any, remains unclear.
