Sky Sports cameraman falls over during live interview with Oldham's groundsman

Filming a live interview with a man sitting on a parked mower seems simple enough, but for one Sky Sports News cameraman, it was a situation fraught with danger.

While Oldham's groundsman described the preparations for the start of the League One campaign, the cameraman attempted to move around the mower to get a better view of the pitch. And since he wasn't watching where he was going, he tripped and fell down, taking the camera with him.

Since the interview was live, the cameraman had to recover quickly and roll with it, but that didn't stop the reporter and his interview subject from stopping to laugh at him.

Anyway, that's how you make an interview about reseeding a pitch slightly interesting.
