NBC sent Colin Jost, known primarily for his work on Saturday Night Live, to far-away Tahiti to cover surfing at the 2024 Olympic Games. Jost has been doing his job the last couple of days, but seemingly finding more and more ways to get himself into trouble on the French Polynesian island, particularly medically.
"This job has been absolutely a total joy, there were some obstacles that I did not anticipate. For example before you came to me, I had gotten some open wounds on my foot from hitting coral reef and I actually had been walking in place in this yard because if I stand still ants begin crawling inside the wounds," he told Maria Taylor. He hardly seems upset about it, though, simply calling it, "Not something I anticipated."
