Buggy down.
An Australian news reporter was violently attacked live (by herself) while trying to shoo away a pesky mosquito, but failed and ended up hitting herself in the face.
Andrea Crothers, a reporter for Australia’s Today Show, was on the scene reporting on the recent flooding in Brisbane when the pesky insect landed on her face.
The reporter, like any bug hater would do, swatted the bloodsucking bug, but her aim was a little off and the bug was too fast, resulting in Crothers receiving a rather cruel slap to the face.
After the moment of impact, which was strong enough for his microphone to pick up, Crothers ran from the chamber waving his arms as the buggy attack continued.
While she seemed to be under pressure at the time, her colleagues were not so worried as they found the situation quite funny.
“A funny thing happened today. Andrea Crothers, one of our great reporters on the show, has been covering these floods in Brisbane, fantastic job,” host Karl Stefanovic said, according to the video shared by Crothers.
“But up there it is very muggy, the weather is humid, and with all those conditions come the terrible conditions.” [bugs] while the sound of mosquitoes was heard. So here she was, confronted on air during a live report.”
The show’s panel, inside the temperature-controlled studio, roared with laughter at their colleague’s misfortune.
“There are dangers that journalists themselves expose themselves to in order to tell stories at home,” Stefanovic added.

Crother’s now-viral moment was shown at least four times, including a shot played in slow motion.
“I’d like to see all of this slowed down, reversed and rolled back again,” Today Extra host David Campbell said.
“I don’t want to mess with Andrea, she clearly doesn’t joke,” added co-host Sylvia Jeffreys. “It can even eliminate itself.”

Crothers, who apparently escaped the self-attack unharmed, eventually took part in making fun of herself.
The day after the viral slap, he donned a mesh helmet during the livestream, joking that it was approved by human resources.
“I’m fine guys, HR said I could use this as long as I didn’t file for workers’ compensation for punching me in the face,” the journalist said.
“It’s actually quite fashionable, it looks like you’re going to the races,” said one of the presenters in the studios.

I’m still laughing. I saw this about five times. Gold,” one person commented on Crothers’ Instagram post.
“You are all the rumor!!” added another.
