Anderson Hard At Work



Julie found this video that is a live feed from the show at the Mexican border last week. It is interesting to watch what goes on during commercials and taped segments.

When asked if he felt claustrophobic in the tunnel Anderson's answer was "I didn't find anything wrong with it. I just found it fun amazing". Come on Anderson. You were excited like a little kid crawling around in the tunnel. Later on you even tell them "if you are ever going to bust anything else let us know." So, it is ok to use the word "fun".

Great find Julie! I love behind the scenes stuff like that. You can tell he didn't feel claustrophobic. Tunnels bring out the little boy in him. He totally loves going in them. I thought it was cute how he just stared at the camera while the segment of him in the tunnel would be playing on the TV for the viewers. He had a cute look on his face as he was staring at the camera.

Anderson is a total BlackBerry addict. At the beginning he was on it and then again at the end of the video. I swear if someone told him he could either cut off a limb or give up his BlackBerry I think he would happily cut off a limb...LOL!!!

That video is so interesting. Thank you Julie for the find and Quitty for uploading. (I can't believe you got Blogger to take an 8 minute clip. You have the magic touch.)
Nice to see Charlie Moore is still doing remotes with AC. I think I read a tweet that Neil was on the camera that night too. AC's crew seems to stick with him, which is a sign of a good boss.

While this is a nice find, some day someone is going to find a "live feed," AC might not like others viewing. You can tell he is totally aware that the camera is rolling even when he isn't expected to be "on," and that's a good thing. It is probably the reason there is no more webcam.
Wonder if Obama asked AC for his autograph or was it the other way around.

What a cool clip - who knew how much could be accomplished in the short span of time between a taped report or a commercial break? It was nice how AC was able to take pics with his guests even though he was under pressure for time - you really have to be fast on your feet. ATA's posted many fantastic clips this year, but I think this one will end up being my favorite. Thanks for posting it.

I loved the clip. ACAnderFan said exactly what was on my mind after I viewed it. Judy, I agree that AC was totally aware. He was concentrating and I think it illustrates his perfectionism. Wish we could see more clips like this!

Excellent clip! Thank you !!!!!

AC is at his best when he's on the field! And this behind the scene was fantastic. With this we can get back in touch of Webcams to commercials. The webcan was so fun, so interesting and unique. It's a shame they have finished!

Hey. On NPR's "Wait, Wait Don't Tell Me" Rick Sanchez plays "Not my Job" and talks about Anderson attempting to murder him...indirectly.
