Viewers of the Olympics closing ceremony were treated to one of the most hilarious moments of the games this evening (11 August).

Whether you've been enjoying it or not, the Olympics closing ceremony brings about a lot of talking points, usually to do with the performances or the athletes parading around the arena.

But this time, it's something very different that you may have missed if you blinked for a split second.

Apparently behind the extremely talented and hard-working orchestra, a man could be seen stuffing his face with his dinner, which looked like noodles to many.

Fair play to him, he didn't let anything get in the way of dinner time.

Take a look:


Users thoroughly enjoyed the find on X, as one said: "That’s a brilliant spot."

Another shared: "Great spot to watch. Right in action"

A third posted: "This could be the highlight of the evening!"

One slightly confused viewer shared: "Thought it was Dave Grohl for a split second."

Whether it was planned or not, it was a great spot amidst a closing ceremony that has had several other noteworthy incidents.

A slippery carpet caused some social media users to chuckle, while others took a while to figure out that the oddly shaped stage was actually a world map.

But that didn't beat the praise that BBC commentator David Cotter got from viewers, as he provided people with endless banter as the ceremony started.

Users hailed the 51-year-old, with one saying: "@MrAndrewCotter the best part of the closing ceremony is the commentary provided by Mr Andrew Cotter. Love his voice and witty banter lol"

Another shared: "Andrew Cotter is a national treasure, he's just the peak of commentators with his little one liners"

A third said: "Andrew Cotter. Simply the gold medal of Olympic commentary".
