Weatherman accidentally turns on facebook filters before going live on TV

A North Carolina TV reporter didn’t realise he’d turned filters on when he started filming a Facebook Live video and inadvertently did an entire report while a funny wizard beard and goggly eyes popped up over his face. 

Justin Hinton was reporting live for ABC 13 North Carolina on Thursday, February 20, filming himself for a video for the station’s Facebook page.

But he didn’t realise until nearly a minute into the live video that he’d accidentally enabled the Mystery Mask filter so while he spoke seriously about a recent snowfall in the Charlotte area.
