A British radio host, by the name of Laura Safe, which is rather ironical, has fallen into a canal while she was walking and texting.

She was caught on camera during the dangerous and quite embarrassing incident, and this video of her soon went viral.

“I should really be called Laura UNsafe after the day I've had,” she wrote on Twitter.

Lucky for her, a man was walking by and noticed the accident. He swooped in for the rescue.

“This man came running up Baywatch style, grabbed my hand and pulled me up. [...] He was a hero and saved my life,” she describes, according to a report by UPI.

Asked by reporters what she was so concentrated on, she responded that she was exchanging texts with her boyfriend.
