All Noah had to do was sit in his car seat, but at the moment the live cameras started to roll, he put his epic plan to sabotage the broadcast into action…
Just short of a month shy of his birthday, little Noah and his mom, Tori, were asked to participate in a live broadcast on Fox 29 Philly about a groundbreaking new car seat law. Tori was supposed to demonstrate how to safely secure little Noah into his seat, but her rambunctious toddler had other plans.
Fox 29 Philly posted the clip on August 5, 2016. "All Noah had to do was sit in his car seat. He had his eyes on a bigger prize… The driver's seat."
I think I've actually managed to nail down the EXACT moment that poor Mike realizes his broadcast is not going to be easy. Check out the tension in his shoulder!
The full video is at the bottom of the post, but I've captured key moments in the meltdown below.
Experienced journalists know that kids are sometimes fidgety. Especially — for some reason — when cameras are rolling.
The seasoned anchor is already hatching a plan to manage the rambunctious little boy.
Tori also realizes what's about to happen. Who can forecast when a tantrum is coming better than a kid's mom?
When Mike approaches, she's got a vice grip on Noah and she's kind of positioned him like an airplane. A squirming, whimpering airplane. Maybe this has worked before?
It's not working this time.
That's OK, though. Mike has a peace offering for Noah: his microphone.
It works at first!
For about 20 seconds. (The average attention span of a toddler!)
Tori decides to do her best anyway, and tries to demonstrate how to put Noah safely into his car seat. At this point, Noah fully throws caution to the wind and starts to freak out.
Here, we see him raising his tiny fist as he makes his move to destroy the mini van. No word as to why he was so angry about getting into the car.
Watch the full-length hilarious clip below, and please SHARE if you think Tori did a wonderful job of handling it all!
