blooper
Outtake reel moment
A blooper is an embarrassing mistake, especially one captured on film or video.
The term originated in broadcasting for on-air errors—flubbed lines, forgotten cues, unexpected mishaps.
Blooper reels compile such moments for entertainment: The DVD includes a blooper reel from the filming.
In baseball, a blooper is a weakly hit fly ball that drops between infielders and outfielders for a hit.
