New Zealand earthquake: PM stays calm during an earthquake...on live TV!

New Zealand's prime minister was being interviewed on live TV when a 5.6-magnitude earthquake struck about 90km north of the country's capital, Wellington.

Despite the unexpected earth tremor, the prime minister managed to stay cool, calm and collected.

The moment was captured on camera and although the quake happened out of the blue, the PM reassured AM Show presenter Ryan Bridge that she was ok to carry on with the interview.
