What's the funniest thing you've seen during a Virtual Meeting?

It's been 18 months since I last worked in an office. During the era of the "virtual meeting," we have figured out how to unmute and turn on our cameras. Most of us, anyways.


While the goal is to remain professional, some funniest home video moments have occurred. What's the craziest thing that you witnessed or experienced during a webinar?


For me, I was having a pricing discussion with a client. He was using a stand-up desk (this is important). Anyways, at the same time that he's giving me the rundown on why we were too expensive, I see the door behind him crack open, and the head of a toddler peaks in.


Before we both know it, this kid runs full-speed at his father. Immediately after I can't see him on screen anymore, the father yelps and drops from my eyesight as well. Off-camera I hear, "Can you call me back in 15-minutes? My son just headbutted me in the plums."


I held back the laughter as I said, "no problem."


When we connected following that, he was sitting down. The first thing he says to me is. "I'm throwing that f'n standing desk away right now. I need better protection."

One of those meetings that I wish I had recorded.

Dude pulls out a vape on a demo and just starts puffing away for 2 and half hours straight, putting himself on mute so we couldn't hear him coughing up a lung. Didn't even turn off the camera haha

Roughly 2 years ago I was on a disco call with a woman. Pretty sure she didn't realize she had her camera on. She must have just gotten out of the shower or something because walked across the screen with only a towel on, dropped it, and started changing. I panicked and shut off my laptop lol

This is 2nd hand, and pre-pandemic, but an old boss once told me about a guy on the road who inadvertently left his camera on during an all hands and was caught on camera wanking in front of the whole company, or at least division.
I know those meetings are boring but there have to be better ways to pass the time.

I 100% walked through the background of my room mates Zoom Meeting while she was presenting her thesis to her entire cohort. While she didn't notice, she received a handful of DM's afterward in question.
