Washington Redskins wide receiver Santana Moss had the opportunity to be a hero for the team and haul in the game-tying touchdown against the Minnesota Vikings on Thursday Night Football, but he was unable to get both feet in bounds and complete the catch.

However, Moss’ effort will still go down as a highlight of the night, thanks to taking out a cameraman who was checking out the action from the sidelines.

The cameraman for the NFL Network, apparently named “Hutch,” got up close and personal to the action as he took the big collision from Moss. It looked like a dangerous hit that could have seriously injured “Hutch,” but he was able to go with the contact and avoid having his knee blown out.

Who knew that cameramen were so nimble on their feet?

For the Vikings, it was their first win on American soil this season.

They advance to a miserable 2-7, but at least they were able to show up with a strong second half performance and prove that they are not tanking it the rest of the way.
