This smitten newsreader was so engrossed in texting her
boyfriend she walked straight into a freezing canal - and the hilarious episode
was captured on camera.
CCTV footage shows Laura Safe - who joked that she should
change her name to Unsafe - plunging into the icy water of the canal in Birmingham , England .
A passing businessman is seen trying to warn Miss Safe to
look out, but by the time she takes her eyes off her phone, it is too late.
The heroic passer-by, 34-year-old Neil Edginton, rushed to
Miss Safe's aid as she flailed about in the water, watched by open-mouthed
diners at the city's Mailbox complex.
The Capital FM Breakfast Show newsreader emerged unharmed
and merely embarrassed at falling into the water in front of so many onlookers.
'I thought ice on the canal was pavement because it looked
dark in the corner of my eye,' the newsreader said.
