Texting Girl Trips Into Mall Fountain, Gets Mocked by Employees

Busted!

texting girl falls into mall fountain If all of the clichéd jokes about teens and text messaging fused together like Voltron, they still wouldn't get as many laughs as a single video of a texting girl doing an epic faceplant into a mall fountain. Imagine being the guy watching the security camera for that incident! Oh wait, you don't have to, because it's on YouTube.

The voices you hear in the background of the video are presumably a mall security officer and some other employees he's called over to watch the epic texting fail from a couple of different angles. Yeah, any of us would do the same thing in that situation, and we'd probably post the footage to YouTube, as well. What I wouldn't do is post the name of the mall and leave my voice in the video ... as hilarious as it is, someone's about to get fired for publicly humiliating a mall customer. And that someone isn't Pedro in hospitality services, who stopped to check on the bumbling girl.

Probably the same lady who was tailgating me the other day. She was on her cell and smoking too.

Let's have a little compassion. There are plenty of brilliant people who are also absent-minded. Poor girl was drenched, embarrassed and lost her phone.

There is a big difference between being absent-minded and not paying attention to what you are doing. If your call or text message is that important, stop and sit down somewhere so you are not a danger to yourself or others.

Now she wants to sue the mall.She has filed lawsuits in the past.She should have just kept quiet and not faced the media,( expect the teasing).

Hilarious and so deserving but what's up with the commentary? It's not going to take a rocket scientist to figure out who recorded the
private footage and released it...definitely without authorization. I know that sometimes surveillance footage begs to be shared with others...but what happens in the surveillance room...stays in the surveillance room, unless you're willing to lose your job over it. Which, I guarantee, is what happened.

Just like stupid people to do something like this I've seen worse. Last week I saw a bimbo walk to the wrong car while texting and tried to unlock it and stood there for at least 3 minutes before she figured out she had gone to the wrong car.What does it take to get some brains now days?This is going to be a bigger problem then you all think in the near future if people don't get smart about the usage of these cell phones/texting.People just don't pay attention to life they are just concerned with their little toys and hold on to them like they are going to miss the next message and then return to the caller to inform them of everything they are doing. This is sick and people are out of control. Wake up and get a life people!!!!!!!!!!!

Staged. Look how high she lifts her knee as she approaches the fountain. Reminds me of NBC "News" and how they falsely demonstrated the volatility of fuel tanks on trucks.

i love it...thankfully the woman tripped into WATER face first instead of cement. she didn't even have time to brace her fall with her hands, it could have been much worse. people (mostly women in my experience) just cannot take their hands off their iphone to stop texting for 2 minutes. it really is ridiculous to be that engrossed into something while walking in a mall. i mean how dangerous. i hope she learned her lesson and won't be doing that again anytime soon. my own wife is really bad with this too, not as bad as this woman, but bad enough to worry. if she's not texting she's playing a game on the other portable phone size thing she has. i forget what it's called. oh, gameboy, i just remembered. anyway, it's like swallowing glass for her to put either of them down.

She has no basis to sue, if you are in a public place you lose the right to privacy for film and photographs. You couldn't really see the lady's face that clear until today when she went on national tv with her attorney to say they were suing mall security.

I truly hope she has no offspring to inflict upon future society.

I don't think they can be fired. They recorded it on a cellphone, they didn't use the actual feed from the security camera. If she doesn't file a lawsuit, then her image doesn't appear as an interview on GMA and other programs. If she lets it go, then the video gets shot all over the world, with only a handful of people knowing who it was. So the responsibility lies with her. Besides it all cancels itself out. She has a court date pending for fraud and/or theft.
