Reporter Covered In Raw Sewage While Covering Hurricane

Posted 8/29/2011 7:00 am by

Reporter Tucker Barnes, covered in foamy poop-water.

One of the hazards of being a reporter is field reporting.  Whenever there’s a major event, like Hurricane Irene, you’re out there in the middle of the action, putting your health and safety at risk.  When Tucker Barnes of WTTG was sent to Ocean City, Maryland, to cover the passing hurricane, he figured he was okay to just stand on the boardwalk and hopefully avoid the anger of the sea.  However, there was quite a lot of unusual sea foam generated by the hurricane.  As it turns out, Tucker Barnes wasn’t covered in sea foam, he was covered in raw sewage.

As Tucker describes in the video, the “organic matter” mixed with sand and salt is composed mostly of cyanobacteria and pollution, which means that basically it is raw sewage that was dumped into the ocean by the storm.  And he’s standing there, getting it splattered in his face, in his eyes, and in his mouth.  Ugh.  There’s a reason why, as Tucker says, “It doesn’t taste great.”
