Hamish Blake left panicking as disastrous trophy unveiling turns dangerous on Lego Masters - forcing the show to pause filming
The host was presenting the season's trophy to the contestants and Ryan 'Brickman' McNaught - but it didn't go to plan.
The tall and hefty structure, constructed of Lego bricks, began to wobble, threatening to topple off the moving stand that Hamish was wheeling it on.
Ryan quickly pointed out that the trophy appeared to be losing the battle the gravity as Hamish continued to push it out.
'Mate, if that lands on your head, it'll hurt' he warned and Hamish became hysterical.

The host was presenting the season's trophy to the contestants and Ryan 'Brickman' McNaught - but it didn't go to plan. The tall and hefty structure, constructed of Lego bricks, began to wobble, threatening to topple off the moving stand that Hamish was wheeling it on
'I'm not gonna break your trophy, Brickman!' he shouted in response - but nonetheless stopped pushing it out.
The show then cut to a break while the statuette was stabilised and the segment could continue - the trophy now secure.
It comes after Ryan revealed what he really thinks of working with co-host Hamish.
The Lego Masters star has shared the screen with Hamish for the past seven years on the hit Channel Nine game show.
On the cusp of the premiere of Lego Masters' seventh season - Grandmasters of the Galaxy - Ryan opened up about what it's like working with Hamish.
Speaking to Nine, Ryan admitted that, rather than displaying any diva-like behaviour, Hamish has always been incredibly genuine.
'I'm not surprised by how funny he is, because he's exactly the same guy off camera as what he is on camera. So there's nothing hidden from that perspective,' Ryan said.
'He's just incredibly genuine, like, he's the same guy, so it makes it pretty easy to go to work, I'll be brutally honest.'

The Lego doyen added that when the pair first met eight years ago, they hit it off instantly, bonding over eerily similar hobbies and interests.
'Whilst I'm creative with Lego from a professional point of view, and he's obviously a comedian and media personality-type-guy, we both cycle every day to and from the studio,' he said.
'We're both into footy. We both play golf. There's lots of things that we do that are the same, which made for a pretty easy connection, and we have a very similar sense of humour.'
The chemistry has obviously translated successfully to the screen with Lego Masters proving quite the ratings hit for Nine.
The 2024 series finale boasted a national total reach audience of 1.9million viewers - a figure that remained relatively consistent throughout the season with the premiere bringing in 2.2million fans.
Ryan's ringing endorsement comes after Hamish was revealed to be one of the highest-paid TV stars in the country.
The Australian's TV Rich List report, released this week, places the comedian third in the top 35 highest-paid stars list at a formidable $2million.
He trails behind fellow Nine colleagues Scott Cam, who is on $2.4million and Karl Stefanovic who tops the list at an eye-watering $2.8million.
However, the Brickman is nowhere to be seen on the list, with the lowest-placed star, 60 Minutes reporter Amelia Adams bringing in $300,000.

Revealed: Nick Kyrgios made OnlyFans videos with tennis star who stunned the sport with bombshell sex-work confession
Aussie tennis bad boy Nick Kyrgios has hosted a reality show for OnlyFans TV alongside American star Sachia Vickery, who this week revealed she's making a fortune by selling raunchy content on the platform. Vickery has carved out a successful side career, selling steamy photos of herself and charging men a $1000 deposit to date her. She joined adult content site OnlyFans earlier this year, breaking the news to her fans in a bombshell update on her Instagram. 'Tennis anyone? OF link in my bio Big project and features coming soon ( p.s happy Valentine's Day ),' the announcement read, alongside a racy snap of her in far-from-traditional tennis whites. For $12.99 a month, subscribers have access to 'the content too spicy for Instagram,' according to Vickery's OnlyFans bio, which also describes her as 'your favorite pro tennis player.' Her platform teases her 'longest shower vid yet,' stripteases and 'spicier' pictures, while also asking her fans to rate her 'riding skills' as she shares risque videos and saucy snaps. Vickery has banked just over $2million throughout her 14-year career on the court. Outside of the sport, she asks for a $1,000 deposit fee to date her. 'I no longer date for free due to the behavior of men I now require a pre-date deposit send me 1,000 and we can make it happen my cashapp is $Sachiavick,' she told her 39,400 followers during an Instagram Q&A session earlier this week. Earlier this year, Vickery starred in a four-part OnlyFans TV series, which is co-hosted by Kyrgios and reality TV star Sophie Stonehouse. It also stars adult actress Rachel Starr. The show, Smash City, sees the OnlyFans creators hit the Pickleball court in an attempt to win $20,000 in prize money. The show was first teased by Kyrgios on March 1 in a clip featuring him and Starr enjoying a pickleball game. 'Who's your money on? Tennis meets Pickleball,' the post was captioned. 'I enjoyed hosting it, and I love competition in general,' Kyrgios said. Kyrgios isn't just a fan of Pickleball - he has also invested in the on-trend sport. Vickery hit back at her critics with a raunchy post on her Instagram after the news broke. Taking to her Instagram story on Wednesday, Vickery shared a video of herself in a bikini with the caption: 'Imagine hating me and I'm in my room like this everyday'. The following post on her Instagram story appeared to promote her OnlyFans page. While Vickery's move may have sent ripples through the tennis world, she has no regrets. She previously revealed that she's always seen herself as something of a revolutionary - and she referenced how she and Kyrgios differ in the way they use OnlyFans. 'I've always pushed boundaries,' she said on the Black Spin Global podcast earlier this year. 'I've always been outspoken about racial hate I get online, bodyshaming. I'm very open about a lot of stuff. 'I'm still playing tennis, my career is still going but I also want to do things outside of tennis. I'm starting to explore more opportunities on social media.' 'Obviously there are levels to OnlyFans, you have athletes like Nick [Kyrgios] and Alex [Muller] who are going to be posting tennis content for the most part and then you have the other complete extreme, which I'm not. I'm in that middle gap,' she added. 'I set it up in January and it just took off. Being a tennis player definitely helped my marketing. I'm at a stage where I don't do the absolute most on there but I'm comfortable as I need to be. I'm doing really well. 'Obviously, I'm going to get some negative feedback but that's just normal. Whatever you do in life there's always going to be some criticism. If I was doing nothing I'd be getting criticism, so I might as well get on the platform and make money while I'm at it.' Yet as she stepped onto the Grand Slam stage in Flushing Meadows again this week, Vickery once again hit back at her critics. 'I'm very open-minded and I don't care what people think of me … it's also the easiest money I've ever made and I enjoy doing it,' said Vickery when asked about balancing the two entirely different worlds together in an Instagram Q&A session. 'I will never talk s*** about girls on OnlyFans ever again for the rest of my life. Because the amount I made on there in my first two days, I am overwhelmed. I am just shook really.'

Fears for Kyle Sandilands as he vanishes from radio show after shock health scare: 'I think I've had a stroke'
Kylie Sandilands was mysteriously absent from his KIIS FM breakfast show on Thursday after announcing on-air that he'd had a 'stroke' earlier this week. The 54-year-old, who is currently battling a brain aneurysm, surprised listeners on Tuesday when he said he felt like he had been fumbling his words during the first hour of the Kyle & Jackie O show. Kyle completed the episode and was on air again alongside regular co-host Jackie 'O' Henderson on Wednesday. The shock jock abruptly declared, 'I think I've had a stroke' after completing the regular 'Tradie V Lady' quiz segment during Tuesday's episode of the radio program. 'I feel that I've said the wrong words multiple times this morning, and I'm not super tired,' he continued. Jackie, unsure whether Kyle was joking, defended her on-air partner. 'No, you haven't,' she assured her co-host. Kyle then explained he had messed up reading an announcement about a prize for the quiz. A producer on the show agreed, noting that earlier that morning, Kyle had confused the word 'mattock' with 'matlock'. Daily Mail has contacted the show for comment. It comes after Kyle revealed a major milestone in his health journey. The radio king, who is on a health kick after his shock brain aneurysm announcement in February, addressed his progress on KIIS FM's The Kyle & Jackie O Show after a week of exercise and dieting. In the radio segment, Jackie, 50, reminded listeners of Kyle's goal to take 'baby steps' to inspire others who are struggling with their weight, a program the hosts have cheekily dubbed 'Kyle's Big Fatso Club'. 'Fatso Club started a week ago. Your whole initiative with this was to give people baby steps and make it doable for the big fatsos,' she began. 'Your original weigh-in weight last week was 139.7 kilos,' she said, before revealing Kyle's updated weight after a week of lifestyle changes 'Even if I've not lost anything, I'm still going to continue,' he confessed, as he hopped onto the scale. The result prompted an audible gasp from Jackie, who revealed Kyle's shock new weight: 137.3 kilograms. 'You've lost over two kilos in one week!' she added, which was met with applause from the studio. 'I'm actually quite impressed with myself,' Kyle replied, clearly chuffed with his progress. Jackie added: 'Be impressed because it's impressive.' In February, the media personality revealed to listeners he had been diagnosed with a brain aneurysm, prompting an outpouring of support from fans. 'On Friday, I was told by my medical team, which sounds like I'm already very sick, that I have a brain aneurysm. It requires immediate attention, brain surgery,' he said at the time. 'My doctor said if I didn't get it checked, I would have died. A life of cocaine abuse and partying are not the way to go!' He revealed his doctor had banned him from cocaine, masturbation, heavy lifting and stress.

Inside the jaw-dropping Brighton home that hides a spectacular secret behind its humble Victorian facade
A beautiful property in the upmarket Melbourne suburb of Brighton looks like any other classic restored Victorian residence from the outside. The crisp white exterior of the house features a charming bay window and verandah, a neat but simple English-style front garden and a tasteful dark slate roof with matching paint trim accents. So why is this unassuming home currently listed for sale with a jaw-dropping price guide of $18.5-$19.5million? It turns out the historically respectful and understated frontage is hiding a big secret. And the first clue can be found just to the right side of the house via its long driveway. Beyond the wrought iron fence is a discreetly tucked away underground eight-car garage. Yes, eight. And that's only the beginning of the property's lavish internal features, all carefully concealed from its modest street scape. The property, known as Waterperry, is in fact a five bedroom, six-bathroom palatial oasis. There's another secret tucked behind the spectacular kitchen (left) - a fully-equipped butler's pantry (right) From the street, you'd never guess this opulent home boasts all the mod-cons and splendour of a grand mansion. It even has its own internal private lift. Set across a 1048sqm lot, the elegant abode balances its old-world elements with splendidly modern design - and no stone is left unturned. Take the main bedroom suite, for example. It features floor-to-ceiling windows, a private garden courtyard, two dressing rooms, a lavish en suite with a striking marble shower and circular Italian stone bath and a vanity makeup area. Clearly, this is a bedroom space designed with resetting and recharging in mind. The majority of the bedrooms are on the home's top floor, along with a rear rumpus room, northern balcony and a chic central bathroom. And if visitors are coming to stay, there's plenty of space for them to feel comfortable in the ground-level guest room, complete with its own walk-in robe and en suite. The restored period intricacies of the house are in sharp focus at the front sections of the house, as seen in the formal living room and library. But it's the open back section of the house with its combination bar, dining, living and kitchen space that looks truly fit for modern family life. The kitchen is a spectacular space accented by Taj Mahal Quartzite benches and splashbacks, a sculptural Marmorino rangehood and Buster & Punch brass hardware. And there's another secret hiding just behind it - a dream butler's pantry complete with ovens, appliances, bench space and even a walk-in cool room and wine fridge. Just beyond the kitchen lies a splendid cinema with luxe individual armchair seating. Movie night just got an upgrade. Back in the main open plan living area - centred around an unmissable elemental stone clad fireplace - the space effortlessly flows into a breathtaking alfresco area overlooking the north-facing mineral pool and spa. Even the brisk Melbourne weather has even been accounted for, with a covered and heated outdoor terrace area. With a wellness retreat ethos in mind, the back section of the house offers a gym in the pool house and a steam aromatherapy room. Namaste, indeed. The house is jam-packed with too many top-end inclusions to name them all. A few examples include CCTV, alarm and intercom systems, a basement wine cellar, automatic suction laundry chute, irrigated gardens and a self-cleaning, self-levelling swimming pool. And remember that driveway? Even it's gently graded slope has been considered to accommodate low-set prestige cars. In addition to all of the above, the property is located in the blue chip Bayside suburb of Brighton, positioned close by The Baths, Yacht Club, Middle Brighton Beach and the vibrant Church Street shopping area. 'To me, this is the definition of luxury: timeless style, flawless function, complete ease across every level of the home,' real estate agent and Director, Will Maxted, from RT Edgar told Daily Mail. 'You have grand level scale and sophistication, but it still feels warm, liveable and completely inviting.
