Hilarious! Greek journalist falls off his chair live on air (video)

It was an innocuous incident

One such incident occurred during a political discussion on Greek TV station Ant-1, when suddenly one of the panelists, a journalist named Yiannis Stratakis slipped out of chair and disappeared under the table and out of the camera frame.

A slight panic ensued, with the other guests unclear as to what had caused the fall. They quickly realised it was nothing serious and Mr. Stratakis said it was his fault.
