Jockey Tossed off Horse in the Middle of the Today Show

Donna Brothers had the presence of mind to try and toss... it back to the studio after getting bucked off of one of trainer Bob Baffert's ponies.

What she didn't realize is that when a segment has just produced viral comedy gold, no one in the control room or studio is going to bail you out.

It's a new day and age in television where you no longer attempt to downplay when something goes wrong, you highlight it and hope the rest of the world takes notice.
