Look out! Sky Sports reporter has a near miss by a reversing car during a live broadcast on the red carpet in Leicester Square… but he doesn’t even flinch

  • An awkward moment occurred during one of the live broadcasts on Sky Sports.
  • The owners became concerned when the car spun alongside reporter Craig Slater.
  • Slater saw the funny side, but maintained his professionalism even after his near-miss.

There was a sharp gasp at Sky Sports headquarters when one of their presenters was nearly hit by a car during a live broadcast.

Craig Slater spoke live from Leicester Square at the premiere of new Hollywood film Ferrari.

As Slater spoke to the camera, he came dangerously close to being cut off by a car that was caught on camera reversing down the red carpet.

Slater, who has been a key part of Sky’s Formula One coverage, didn’t even seem to notice the blunder when he spoke about the premiere.
