Cleveland Browns videographer falls in Lake Erie during helmet unveiling

Video captures the moment a Cleveland Browns videographer falls into Lake Erie during a helmet unveiling.

On Wednesday, July 23rd, 2025, the Browns planned on a grand reveal of a new alternative helmet design that the team would be sporting three times during this football season, on a large float in Lake Erie.

However, in all of the excitement of filming the moment a Brown's cameraman fell backwards into the lake. Footage of the incident was caught on WYKC's aerial cam as well as from the cameraman's POV.

Luckily, Chomps, the Browns' trusted mascot, quickly threw a flotation device to the man while a jet ski swiftly grabbed him from the water.

In several comments on X fans were impressed that the man didn't "fumble" his camera in his fall.
