So this is where we're at as far as technology is concerned in 2014…

On Saturday afternoon, Brazilian soccer star Neymar was rushed to the hospital after suffering a fractured vertebrae during his team's World Cup game against Colombia. And while he was being wheeled into the hospital, a nurse who was nearby whipped out her phone and started filming him. She then turned the camera on herself and flashed a smile—before posting the video on YouTube.

Not surprisingly, the nurse has since been fired for what she did. But the footage of Neymar being escorted into the hospital by a handful of doctors is now making the rounds. What in the world was this woman thinking when she filmed this and, more importantly, when she filmed herself holding the camera? SMH.
