The creator starts by expressing her mortification, then explains that she wore a maternity support belt for her back pain during her commute across London. She cuts to a wider shot to reveal that a flap on the back of the belt was sticking out above her low-rise jeans, making it look like she was wearing a massive thong. She turns around to show the audience the comical wardrobe malfunction and laughs hysterically at her own embarrassing situation.

help i'm genuinely mortified
I'm fucking mortified. Right. For context, I've just done my entire commute across London looking like this. I best put this jumper on for my own modesty, but I've been having back issues, so I put my little barbells on for support. Unfortunately, there's a flap at the back of it. I just caught this in the mirror. It looks like I just come into the world's biggest thong. That was out. That was deeply upsetting.
