Just don’t pay attention to the guys behind me! The video was recorded during a live shot on the Weather Channel. The network’s longtime reporter Mike Seidel was on the scene as Hurricane Florence moved on land near Wilmington, North Carolina, and Seidel was bearing the brunt of the wind. The Weather Channel issued a statement that said “It’s important to note that the two individuals in the background are walking on concrete, and Mike Seidel is trying to maintain his footing on wet grass, after reporting on-air until 1 a.m. this morning and is undoubtedly exhausted.” The brave men and women of the keyboard army will let this slide right?! Uhhhh….not a chance. Reading the comments, you’d think something worse than an exaggeration had happened. While Seidel may have over the top, its important to remember there are people that are dying and losing their homes. If you would like to donate to the relief effort, a link is below.
