Hurricane Florence : Weatherman caught ‘faking’ battle to stay on his feet during storm
- 6 years ago
THIS is the bizarre moment a TV weatherman appeared to be caught faking his battle against gale-force winds during Storm Florence.
The Weather Channel's Mike Seidel was seemingly battling to stay upright as he filmed a piece in North Carolina, only for two pedestrians to calmly stroll past in the background.
Speaking as he fought to stay in shot, he whined: "This is about as nasty as it's been".
But viewers spotted the pair walking down a road behind him - seemingly unaffected by the wind.
The deadly storm made landfall on the east coast of the US on Friday bringing with it "biblical" flooding on what's been described as a "thousand-year rain event".
