Been posted before,

but, it nevers get old seeing famous people screw up.

[Squeek]

u would think famouse ppl screw up more often then the rest of us, but then again, how often (excuding ozzy, im sure he always has police choppers after him) do we have the media following us around?

You can't beat English footballers for this sort of thing. The commentators are just as bad at times. Here's just 3 examples from David Coleman, a famous TV commentator.

"And for those of you who are watching who haven't got television sets, live commentary is on Radio 2."

"Don't tell those coming in now the result of that fantastic match. Now let's have another look at Italy's winning goal."

"If that had gone in, it would have been a goal."

Murray Walker said a few daft things in his commentating career. Irreplacable...

Dear old Murray. Thanks for reminding me, my daughter gave me his autobiography for my birthday back in January. Forgot all about it.

PS. I've given up watching F1 on TV now. Somehow it's not the same without Mr. Walker.

[Hagar]

Here's a few Murray Walker classics.

"He's obviously gone in for a wheel change. I say obviously because I can't see it"

"With half the race gone, there is half the race still to go"

"Do my eyes deceive me, or is Senna's Lotus sounding rough ?"

"Anything happens in Grand Prix racing and it usually does"

"Alboreto has dropped back up to fifth place"

"As you look at the first four, the significant thing is that Alboreto is 5th"

"I can't imagine what kind of problem Senna has. I imagine it must be some sort of grip problem"

"He is shedding buckets of adrenalin in that car"

"It's raining and the track is wet"

[During a F1 race, describing how the leader can see the driver following him] "... Mansell can see him in his earphone..."

Murrary: "What's that? There's a BODY on the track!!!"
James: "Um, I think that that is a piece of BODY-WORK, from someone's car."

Murray: There's a fiery glow coming from the back of the Ferrari
James: No Murray, that's his rear safety light.

[after a post race interview with Mansell after the Austrian GP 1987] Murray : "How did you get that nasty bumb on your head Nigel?" [Nigel leans forward to show the camera as Murray pokes it with his finger !] Nigel: "OWCH!!"

"...and he's lost both right front tyres" (which may have been accurate back in the days of the Tyrrell P34, but it was from 1995!)
