Whoops poor chap

 

[mattyh]

Ouch.

Odds on the gear surviving?

 

[hotchef23]

oooooooooops

 

[norvic-boy]

Absolutely hilarious!!

I wonder if his camera worked afterwards??

 

[Carlm90]

That poor guy better have insurance

 

[mattyh]

That poor guy better have insurance

If he didn't, it's Karma

You know your into your photography when you feel like crying rather than laughing after seeing that.

 

[DC2Z]

thats top quality

 

[CT]

OMG! You gotta feel for the poor guy.

 

[Dazzler]

I was enjoying his moon-walk up to that point!

 

[CoughlinPhotog.]

Oh my Gosh, that would SUCK! Poor guy...I would ball.

 

[DSLR]

Splash proof

 

[pauljs]

Oh that is just so funny, poor planning or what

 

[Blake]

That made me chuckle

Exactly how I felt!!

 

[whitewash]

i like the way the person hooks his camera out before him, top quality, poor bugger!

 

[Starastin]

Exactly how I felt!!

. I was like - damn ! L glass ! . poor fella is verrry lucky that he didn't hit the head on the edge or something.

 

[Coaster]

The shots he took before he fell in should be ok as the card is waterproof.

 

[gingerweasel]

I like my photography and my cameras - and whilst my first thought was grab the cameras shouldn't we feel sorry for the couple who just lost the memories of their special day, lol

 

[akr]

Although I laughed initially, I feel sorry for all involved. I'd love to hear the Canon's rocked on and the couple got their wedding shots, or there was a 2nd tog who took over...

 

[foggy4ever]

I hate to think of him taking a nice portrait shot near a cliff

that was odd!

 

[Rob 80386]

like the way the other guy grabs the cameras first, then get the photographer out of the water.

Well yeah! That's expensive equipment!

 

[D_B]

Gutted

 

[ryanyboy]

I thought he was doing a pretty good job until he fell in the drink. Bride seemed to be in her element too.

 

[smooth]

the kit grabber almost yanks the togs head off with the neck strap!

Thanks for sharing

 

[Dave450]

bloody marvellous what a way to cheer me up lol

 

[rich_cooper]

that is unlucky

 

[magicaxeman]

I thought it was a wedding, not a baptism¬¬

He should have known from a recce / rehearsal it was there.

 

[eddo123]

all i can say is

********* LOL!!!!

 

[Gary.D]

Oh no how embarrasing!

To be fair he may well have known, could just have got his bearings wrong. I'll admit I'm being generous but accidents happen....

I didn't know whether to laugh, cry or wonder if anyone was annoyed about the disruption he caused!

 

[snoop69]

I had to laugh to be honest

Seriously though, hope everything ended well & I would be seeing the video
guy & asking why he didnt give any warning

'Youve beebn framed'

 

[Coldeh]

Well he forgot the rule "The photographer is not the centre of the show".

 

[goldenlight]

He should have bought an E-3!

Seriously, the Poster's comment on YouTube is that both the tog and his equipment were fine and after a quick change of clothes he finished the shoot. I would imagine the bride and groom found it hilarious - adding to, rather than detracting from, their memories of the day. Especially as it was all caught on video!

Don't know why people thought it strange to grab the cameras first, I would. The tog is already soaked, but the cameras will survived a quick dip but not a sustained soaking.
