01

A bottle nearly falls

Berman describes a frightening moment during an interview with Sundar Pichai. He catches the glass bottle before it can fall.

I was interviewing Google CEO Sundar Pichai in front of 400 people when I reached for a glass bottle and almost dropped it. For a moment I imagined it falling and shattering in front of everyone. Luckily, I caught it.

02

An awkward recovery

The cap will not open and then falls to the ground. Berman retrieves it and takes a sip while Pichai continues answering.

I thought I was safe, but then the cap would not open. I changed my grip and dropped the cap on the floor, all while Sundar kept answering the question I had asked. I picked it up and took a sip, even though I did not really need water. Looking back, I can laugh, but at the time I was terrified.

03

Turning the experience into video

Berman describes a Claude and Higgsfield workflow for visualizing his feelings. He encourages viewers to try Higgsfield.

To remember the moment, I connected Higgsfield MCP to Claude and supplied the video and audio recording. I asked it to turn each stage of my panic into a visual sequence, from imagining I would never be invited back to finally putting the bottle down. I say Claude planned the shots and Higgsfield generated the video.

If you want to make a video about an important moment, I suggest trying Higgsfield and provide a link in the description. This is a product promotion; the video does not explicitly say whether it was paid.
