Channel 12 Employee Caught Changing Clothes Live on Air

The story · English

An unusual and amusing incident occurred during a live broadcast on Israel's Channel 12 when an employee, seated behind the studio's transparent glass wall, was filmed changing his clothes. The cameras continued to roll, and the anchors remained unaware of the activity behind them.

The employee was seen getting up from his desk, removing his shirt, and putting on another one directly in front of the camera. Due to the studio's open design, which also shows the active newsroom, the seemingly routine action was clearly captured and broadcast live to viewers.

The employee himself ensured the awkward moment didn't go unnoticed by posting the clip to his Instagram account with the caption, "This was my last day there." It remains unclear whether the clothing change was a planned humorous gesture or if he only later realized he had been filmed live.

Regardless, while a serious discussion took place at the front of the studio, a different scene unfolded behind the anchors. The employee changed his shirt and continued with his business without any reaction from those on camera. His own social media post turned the minor mishap into an amusing farewell joke, serving as a reminder to employees in open newsroom settings that those behind the anchors are also part of the broadcast and can sometimes steal the show.
