On a DFDS ferry going from France to Sussex, a “hardcore porn” film randomly started playing on a lounge TV that passengers had just finished watching a Formula One grand prix on.

Any young children on board this ferry who caught a glimpse of or heard this naughty film playing supposedly “ran screaming,” according to one passenger who spoke to Argus newspaper in Brighton.

Talk about a parent’s nightmare.

“…Some parents came out and they were asking the man who worked there to sort the TV out, they were saying, ‘There’s hardcore porn on the TV.’ I couldn’t see it, but it was audible,” the anonymous passenger continued.

The naughty mistake supposedly happened during a malfunction at a port, which caused the ferry to go back to France.

Obviously embarrassed, DFDS apologized immensely, saying they weren’t aware of the incident. “Once the crew were alerted to the content, the channel was swiftly changed,” said a spokesperson according to the Independent.

“We are very sorry for the understandable upset and anger that this caused. This will not happen again.”

As wild as this incident is, it’s not the first time an unexpected peep show in the randomest place has happened.

An electronic billboard that faces both north and south along Interstate 75 in Michigan reportedly had porn playing around 11 p.m. for a solid 20 minutes before it went completely dark.

That’s one billboard that will get drivers’ attention.

“It was very bizarre,” driver Chuck McMahon told WDIV. “I thought maybe it was a billboard for a strip club or something.”

“I was just looking up at it and I was like, ‘Huh, oh, wow. That’s porn,’” McMahon continued.

Thankfully, no reported crashes took place among the shocked drivers and motorists who got a glimpse of the risqué show.

But there’s no denying that it was a “huge distraction and obviously obscene and inappropriate,” police Lt. Ryan Gagnon told the Detroit Free Press.

“It was dark out, so the screen was glowing really bright,” he said.


Let’s be honest—no matter how stressful the day gets, a good viral video can instantly lift your mood. Whether it’s a funny pet doing something silly, a heartwarming moment between strangers, or a wild dance challenge, viral videos are what keep the internet fun and alive.
