Reporter compiles his wackiest out-of-context lines
Watch Next

Out of context, anything can sound weird, but you don't usually expect particularly wacky lines from a news broadcast.

Reporter Trevor Ault, who describes himself on Twitter as "Portland, Oregon's tallest breaking news anchor/reporter," created a compilation of the wackiest things he's said on air to celebrate his two-year anniversary at KOIN 6 news.

Highlights of this compilation include (but are not limited to): Jane Austen quotes, catching on-air traffic violations, loads of self-deprecating humor, and a mildly disgusting but intriguing Oreo recipe.

"I've been given a lot (too much) freedom to ad lib," he said in a Tweet.

Definitely not too much, in our opinion, as we look forward to Ault's 3-year-anniversary out-of-context wacky line compilation.
