While going live for a news segment on ABC News breakfast show - Good Morning America - reporter Will Reeve was expecting it to be a normal piece-to-camera but perhaps now it is something he won't forget too soon.
Reeve dressed in a suit as seen in the early part of the segment was reporting on a story about chemist shops delivering prescriptions to people using drones amid lockdown due to COVID-19.
But as soon as his segment was nearing an end, the TV screen cut to show the two anchors and a long shot of Reeve where he could be seen sitting without pants - completely unaware.
The segment and Reeve's unintentional gaffe, broadcast on April 28, was possibly seen by millions live in the US.
Here's the video:

For those interested, Will Reeve is the son of popular American actor Christopher Reeve - the man who portrayed DC comics superhero Superman - in movies during the 70s.
Twitter was, again, quick to notice that too:He's Superman's son. He can do whatever he wants. #WillReeve— LaQuan Ippolito (@LaquanIppolito) April 29, 2020
Will Reeve, on the other hand, was quite sporty in acknowledging the incident. He tweeted saying, I have arrived... in the most hilariously mortifying way possible.At least put on sweatpants!'
