On-air emergency: The mosquito can be seen flying into Huang Ching's mouth as she's speaking live on air
A Taiwanese TV presenter had a severe asthma attack live on air after a mosquito flew into her mouth and bit her.
Huang Ching had to be hospitalised after she swallowed the creature, which then got stuck in her windpipe while she was reading the news.
The brave host continues with the broadcast despite the incident
Hard to swallow: The mosquito gets lodged in the presenter's throat as she reads the news
Hospitalised: Ching received emergency care after the incident
But China Television Co moved quickly and urgently put on a four-minute advert while it drafted in a replacement presenter to carry on with the broadcast.
The senior anchor was hospitalised for a day after the incident.
'I never expected a mosquito to have such a great power. It really gave me a bad day,' Huang said after recovering.
