New Delhi (Sputnik): In an inadvertent incident, a Pakistani Air Force F-16 fighter jet crashed on 11 March during rehearsal for a "Pakistan Day" parade, leading to Wing Commander Nauman Akram losing his life in the incident.

The crash and tragic death of an F-16 pilot in Pakistan has turned into a matter of personal embarrassment for a news anchor in the country after she confused “ejection” with “ejaculation” during a news programme, evoking ridicule on social media.

In a video snippet from the Urdu language station Neo TV in Pakistan, the anchor says: “The pilot didn’t ejaculate but rather utilised the crucial time to take the jet into a less populated area”.

The anchor made the gaffe while hailing deceased F-16 pilot, Wing Commander Nauman Akram, for steering the aircraft towards a woods in Shakarparian instead of ejecting, which could have led to a crash in a populated area and caused casualties.

The hilarious goof-up, which would obviously leave anyone red-faced, caught netizens' attention on social media who are leaving no stone unturned to troll her over the mistake.

F-16 fighters in Pakistan are now sex toys. If you do not ejaculate, you crash and die. pic.twitter.com/EFtlyddKi6 — Sanjay Dixit ಸಂಜಯ್ ದೀಕ್ಷಿತ್ संजय दीक्षित (@Sanjay_Dixit) March 12, 2020
