Video: Don't mention the bike! Man on tall bike videobombs Florida news bulletin

Presenter and reporter on Pensacola, Florida news bulletin avoid the obvious

Here's something you don't see every day. A news anchor is asking an on-the-spot reporter about flooding in Pensacola, Florida, when a guy on a tall bike happens past.

The cyclist clearly knows the cameras are rolling - he comes back for another pass - but he is studiously ignored by both the presenter in the studio, and the reporter whose piece he has successfully videobombed.

Pros, all three of them.

Could the news anchor blink any more frequently? It was really offputting...
