This is still one of the funniest things I’ve ever seen on the internet.

In 2006, tech journalist Guy Kewney went to the BBC for a live interview about an Apple court case.

At the same time, Guy Goma was there for a job interview.

A producer went to reception to collect Guy and they literally got the wrong Guy.

Goma was taken to make-up, miked up and put live on air. He went along with it because, as far as he knew, he was there for an interview.

Then came the question about the court ruling.

You can see the exact moment he realises something has gone very wrong.

“I’m very surprised… because I was not expecting that.”

He then just starts answering the questions and the point he made was that people would increasingly use the internet because it made getting what they wanted easier and faster.

Twenty years later, he has been proven absolutely right!!

Twenty years later this still makes me cry with laughter!!
