Naga Munchetty struggled to maintain her composure on BBC Breakfast when showed a video of a man’s unfortunate run-in with a pigeon.
The presenter, 48, ended up wiping away tears and declaring she was ‘sweating’ when a hilarious video of a bird flying right into the head of an unsuspecting man was played on Friday’s episode of the programme.
As her co-host Ben Thompson, 39, explained, Michael Speirs from Nottingham was en route to his local convenience store when the bird clattered into him recently.
The moment was captured on CCTV cameras, much to the delight of the presenters, who couldn’t get enough.
Quoting Michael, Ben shared with viewers that the encounter had been like ‘being whacked full pelt with a feathered pillow’.
After the video played, Ben declared he couldn’t quite put a finger on why it ‘amuses me so much’, but added it was ‘comedy gold too good not to share’.
However, sitting next to him, Naga had totally lost it and was laughing and coughing with amusement.
‘When you’re watching it, you know you’re not supposed to laugh and then it makes you laugh even more,’ she exclaimed.
‘The pigeon just comes too and saunters off,’ Ben explained, before asking producers to play it again, to which Naga begged: ‘Please.’
After seeing it all unfold for a second time Naga said she was ‘sweating’ and joked that someone from make-up needed to come in and sort her out because she was ‘getting really hot’.
Meanwhile Ben was fanning himself as they both tried to hold it together, which was clearly proving difficult.
‘I love that they got it at every angle,’ he said.
Naga then added it was ‘very good CCTV coverage’, to which he cheekily added it was ‘better than some’ BBC camerawork.
As Michael told the BBC, the footage was ‘too good not to share’.
‘What are the chances of this ever happening and having footage?’ he said.
Once it came time to move on to the next story, Ben made sure to clarify that neither the pigeon nor the man were hurt.
But as Naga rightly pointed out they couldn’t quite confirm that was the case, as they had ‘spoken to the man but not the pigeon’.
BBC Breakfast airs weekdays from 6am on BBC One.
