Chicago Bears running back Kyle Monangai had a hilarious blooper caught on camera for the world to see. But one of his teammates had the privilege of seeing it unfold in person.

Monangai and Bears wide receiver Luther Burden III were sitting together on the bench Saturday during their team’s wild-card matchup against the Green Bay Packers at Soldier Field in Chicago, Ill.

The two were sharing a conversation as Monangai tried to quench his thirst.

Monangai didn’t realize he had the squeeze bottle upside down, leading to him unwittingly squirting water onto the field.

Burden couldn’t hold back his laughter after witnessing Monangai’s gaffe that belonged in the Looney Tunes universe.

“Hey bro, I ain’t never seen nothing [expletive] like that, bro,” Monangai said. “Oh my god. Oh my god! Bro, that’s hella funny.”

Monangai himself had a look of disbelief on his way. He tried to downplay the moment, telling Burden to save the chuckles for “after the game” when they can “talk about that later.”

The pair probably wouldn’t have revisited the moment after the game had the Bears lost. But Chicago managed to stave off elimination in a game it trailed 21-3 at halftime, outscoring Green Bay 25-6 in the fourth quarter for a 31-27 win.

Bloopers like the one above happen to the best of us every day. The difference for Monangai was that his moment went viral on the internet for millions of fans to see.
