videobomb

Recording cameo crasher

To videobomb is to deliberately intrude into someone else's video recording, usually by appearing unexpectedly in the background.

The term parallels photobomb but applies to moving footage: A stranger videobombed our interview by waving frantically behind the reporter.

The intrusion is typically meant to be funny or disruptive.
