Eyal Berkovich and Moriah Asraf couldn't help but laugh on their show on Channel 13 about the groom who collapsed this week after his wedding following a serious heart attack.
Berkowitz and Asraf interviewed a medic who had come to the event, and during the interview, the presenter said, "Maybe he realized what a mistake he had made," and started laughing. Asraf joined him.

The groom's family was furious, and harsh reactions to the presenters' behavior also appeared on social media.
The groom's new wife wrote: "It's a shame that some people think this is funny. Eyal Berkowitz, be ashamed. My groom is on a ventilator and sedated and we are tearing down the gates of heaven and dealing with a difficult ordeal. God works miracles and wonders. Instead of laughing, open the book of Psalms and dedicate it to his healing. Shame. Shame that I have to watch this while my husband is fighting for his life. May God help you.".
Tonight, the pair of presenters apologized on the show: "Sometimes they use black humor. We invite them here to the studio to apologize.".
