Blooper

A blooper usually refers to a faux pas made by an actor while filming a television show or movie. These bloopers, or outtakes as they are also called, are often the subject of television shows or are sometimes revealed during the closing title sequence of movies. (Jackie Chan and Burt Reynolds are both famous for including such reels with the closing credits of their movies.)

The term "blooper" was coined by TV producer Kermit Schaefer, who produced many record albums in the 1950s and 1960s collecting actual and recreated bloopers taken from radio, film and television. Besides "out-takes" or "outtakes", alternative terms used to describe this phenomenon include goof, fluff, flub, and the obsolete term, boner. Also, in Britain, they are often called a 'cock-up' or a 'bloomer'. In Britain, the term 'blooper' is often used only to describe mistakes that happen on live television.
