I've seen a lot of amazing viral videos of TV reporters, from a bird crapping on a guy's face to a blind guy getting called gay to Carl Monday. This one is my new favorite.
Cheers to you, Rob Leth of Toronto's Global Television Network. Canadia just got a whole lot cooler.
UPDATE: Video was down earlier; thanks to Latin lothario Eduardo for the working video.

Way to finish the report! That's a Canuck reporter for ya — tough as nails and twice as smart.
Rub some dirt on it, big guy.

It looks like a setup to me. He didn't even try to move out of the way. Coward that I am, I would have taken a dive.
You can tell it's Canadian just by the fact that at the moment of impact someone yells, "Oh, Jeez!" rather than, "Holy fuckin' shit!"
Take off, you hoser.
I didn't know Bruce Bowen liked sledding…
That video was taken last July. I'm pretty sure the ground in Canada is snow covered all year.

Dave CoulierSo you're agreeing with them?
"THAT…. Was a bad idea."
Minor understatement.
I like how his watch alarm goes off at the end. Time to take your medication!
Socialized medicine only encourages this kind of idiocy.
The sign-off after is better than the actual collision.
Well, almost.
So they were timing sled racing? Slow day in Canada? Oh, right. They're in Canada.
I hope he gets a promotion to be the NASCAR correspondent.

wtf happen to the video? no longer available…. bullshit.
OK, so we got the fast-mo. Where's the slo-mo? Or any other kind of mo?
I'd rather watch that over and over for 30 minutes straight than watch Barry Melrose!
That would serve Bruce Bowen right.
sorry i’m late joe, i was over at the bulk barn to pick up some freeze dried strawberries to put on my granola. Turns out they raised the price from 79 cents to 89 cents per kg (yeah.. kg) well me being the ol’ creature of habit that I am I only bring enough to by 3 kg under the old price, and I like 3 kg exactly. it’s just enough to get me through the week. If i dont get them I gotta use the wife’s bluberries and last time that happened, well, let me tell you, she was none too pleased. So where was I? oh yeah… the video doesn’t work for me.
That was awesome. People getting hurt is always funny.
ITS FAKE YOU RETARDS. by retards i mean simple minded individuals who think this is actually real.
Link is dead again.
I guess the lawyers/interns at Global Television are working overtime on YouTube!
