A Mexican TV station briefly showed their viewers a very different eclipse on Monday, one involving a scrotum and a light instead of the moon and sun.

During a broadcast of the 24/7 news program from RCG Media, anchors were listing areas where the solar eclipse was visible when video came on air of what appeared to be a scrotum eclipsing a light. The footage was quickly pulled and the anchors explained that it was from a viewer after amateur footage and images were requested.

Censored and uncensored versions of the clip quickly spread across social media even after the clip was scrubbed from the broadcast. A user on X, formerly Twitter, named Rhevolver took credit for the video.

“I appreciate that you took my video about the eclipse, but I would have loved to have been credited. Greetings,” the user wrote.

“That last video we put up was from a video amateur… production is at full speed integrating everything,” co-anchor Ernesto Amezcua said, according to local media.
