On the Tour de France, you don’t only find professionals in the bunch, as this short clip of the BBC’s commentators shows.
At the end of stage 4 of the race when Marcel Kittel (Etixx-QuickStep) romped in to win, Rob Hatch and Rob Hayles were commentating live on air for BBC Radio 5 and also had a camera on them.
So when the lads got a bit over excited relaying the action to the public and the desk gave way, they didn’t miss a beat.
Hatch simply continued calling the action for listeners while Hayles got a bit of a fright and tried to catch the desk as it went flying.
