Karl Stefanovic left in stitches as Aaron Woods honours nude swim bet at Bondi Beach on live TV
Woods entered the ocean in his birthday suit - a brave feat in the middle of winter - and then accidently revealed his manhood to viewers in shocking scenes.
Stefanovic, co-host Sarah Abo and Danika Mason - who was at Bondi Beach with Woods - couldn't believe what unfolded.
'No! Don't show it!,' Abo pleaded, as Woods lapped up his moment.
Mason then became the star of the show with a one-liner for the ages, labelling it 'the smallest sporting event I've seen.'
'I hope I get a Logie for this,' she added.
Woods later appeared on Today again, thankfully fully clothed.
'I'm feeling good, it was good fun,' the former NSW Blues prop said.

'It was a long run, it was like 'when is this water going to get closer'.'
Woods also honoured the bet - despite NSW Premier Chris Minns warning the act was illegal.
Minns himself is involved in a series-long bet with his Queensland counterpart David Crisafulli, in which the loser will appear in an advertising campaign for the other state.
The Origin decider is at Accor Stadium in Sydney on July 9.

Alien: Earth lead Sydney Chandler has unexpected family connection to beloved Hollywood star
Up-and-coming actress Sydney Chandler leads the critically acclaimed new series Alien: Earth, the latest entry in the long-running sci-fi horror franchise Alien: Earth actress Sydney Chandler is impressing viewers after the first two episodes of Noah Hawley's gripping Alien prequel series dropped on Disney+ yesterday (Wednesday, 13th August). The rising star portrays a hybrid named Wendy, a synthetic human who is the first person ever to have their consciousness uploaded into an artificial body. When a research vessel carrying precious and deadly cargo crash lands on Earth, Wendy and her cohort of other hybrids known as the Lost Boys are sent to investigate, bringing them face to face with the planet's greatest threat. Sydney takes on her most high-profile role to date alongside a stellar cast including Timothy Olyphant, Essie Davis, Alex Lawther, Samuel Blenkin, and Babou Ceesay. But what do we know about her life away from the series so far? Let's take a look. Famous Father Sydney Chandler already has plenty of experience with Hollywood as her father is well-known actor, Kyle Chandler. She was born to the Friday Night Lights star and his wife, Kathryn Macquarrie, in 1996, the year following their marriage. Kyle and Kathryn met at the University of Georgia and have been together ever since. Kathryn usually keeps a low profile, though regularly attends events with her husband and has two credits as an actress to her name, in the 1990s film The Willies and TV series Red Shoe Diaries. Sydney's father has been a constant presence in major Hollywood films for the past three decades, landing memorable supporting roles in the likes of King Kong, Super 8, Argo, Zero Dark Thirty and The Wolf of Wall Street. He has also appeared in acclaimed Oscar contenders such as Carol and Manchester by the Sea and returned to the King Kong franchise in Godzilla: King of the Monsters, and Godzilla vs. Kong. After being cast in the role of Hal Jordan aka Green Lantern in October 2024, he's set to make his debut in the DC Universe in the upcoming HBO series Lanterns, set to be released next year. Love Life So far, Sydney has kept her private and professional lives separate so it's unknown if she is currently dating someone. However, she was previously linked to her Pistol co-star Louis Partridge, reportedly dating between 2021 and 2023. Little is known about the ins and outs of their romance, but they were seen attending the British Fashion Awards together. Louis is now dating pop star Olivia Rodrigo. Cover Shoot Absence Part of why fans don't know a whole lot about the upcomer is because Sydney herself is still working out how much of her personal life she wants to be known to the public. Earlier this year, the star was missing from a Variety cover shoot including Alien: Earth showrunner Hawley and her co-star Olyphant due to a "really unfortunate' misunderstanding. Sydney decided to decline taking part in a filmed game of 'How Well Do They Know Each Other?', which she says she didn't realise was a dealbreaker. "I really wanted to be there for the photo shoot, and I was ready to talk anything and everything Alien,' she told Entertainment Weekly. 'Again, new to this; I haven't done something like that before. I felt uncomfortable doing something like that. 'Unfortunately, I was uninvited from the rest of the shoot. I never meant to offend.' Other Roles Outside of her breakout Alien role, Sydney is best known for appearing in Pistols, alongside her ex Louis, portraying Chrissie Hynde of The Pretenders. She has also landed roles in Olivia Wilde's psychological thriller film Don't Worry Darling with Harry Styles and Florence Pugh. On TV, she has also been seen in Facebook Watch's teen drama series SKAM Austin and Sugar, Apple TV+'s thriller starring Colin Farrell.

Abbie Chatfield shares 'wedding song' boyfriend Adam Hyde has written about her - after sparking engagement rumours
Abbie Chatfield has again sparked engagement rumours with boyfriend Adam Hyde after sharing a song he has written for her. The musician, who goes by the stage name Keli Holiday, has dropped the new single, called Dancing 2 - and Abbie was quick to endorse it. She shared the lyrics to her Instagram Stories on Thursday, with the words seemingly inspired by the early days of the couple's romance. 'You got 28 years just to work it all out, another 28 years just to figure out what it meant to you,' the lyrics read. 'Now I'm next to you, and we're dancing too. You were dancing, yeah you were dancing. And I was dancing too.' After sharing the track, Abbie also shared a message from a fan who said they wished they'd used the song at their wedding. 'It's such a wedding song!' Abbie enthused, perhaps hinting she may play it at her own wedding. It comes after Abbie sparked engagement rumours after showing off some bling she received on her 30th birthday. The Bachelor star shared a video to Instagram in which she revealed the custom-made ring Adam gifted her for her birthday. 'So my 30th birthday and I was wondering what he is going to do for me. We were in Greece for my actual birthday so I only recently got my present but it's so cute,' she said. 'For context, he calls me bug because one day we were in bed and he said "you're like a little bug". Ever since then, [he calls me bug]. So me being buggy he got me this custom made,' Abbie explained before opening a heart-shaped box to reveal the ring. She then placed the band on her ring finger and held it up towards the camera. 'It's a bug ring. Is that not the cutest, coolest, sickest 30th birthday present? It's so weird... I thought you would all be wondering what he got me and I just wanted to show it off,' she added. Many fans flocked to the comments to question whether she was wearing the ring on her engagement finger. 'Hahahaha I did see the left hand engagement ring finger,' one person commented. 'Little do you know, you're now engaged,' another said while a third wrote: 'She did pop it on that finger.' The podcaster immediately shut down speculation, explaining she was wearing the ring on her right hand but the camera flipped the image to make it appear as though it was on her left hand. Abbie and Adam have been going from strength to strength since debuting their romance in June 2024 and she has even featured in his on-stage performances. She told Stellar Magazine that her relationship with Adam is the best she's ever had. 'It isn't like other people I've had flings with. And this is gonna sound a bit w**ky, but he's had a bigger career than me,' she said after concerns from fans that Adam is 'using her' for fame. 'I don't think he's using me for anything. He's successful in his own right. 'I think I'm cool for being with him, not the other way around.' Abbie was friends with Adam for two years before they started dating, which she said has added to the trust between them.

Carlton's new generation shine in AFLW opening round win against Collingwood
Thursday's opening night of AFLW was designed to evoke memories of one of the competition's greatest days, but a slick Carlton performance and flashes of brilliance from the league's newest faces have proven there is no need to dwell on the past. The Blues played their way into the contest against Collingwood in front of a healthy crowd of 8,042 at Ikon Park, overcoming a slow start to dominate the Magpies in the second half and accelerate away from their opponents in a 6.9 (45) to 3.3 (21) victory. The result mirrored the outcome of the first game of AFLW back in 2017, when almost 25,000 piled into the ground set within the same picturesque venue in Melbourne's inner north to see the home side triumph. But on Thursday it was the turn of a new generation. Carlton's 22-year-old vice-captain Mimi Hill finished with 32 disposals, 11 more than any other player, showing she is ready to continue her ascension into the game's elite. Irishwoman Erone Fitzpatrick bagged two goals in her 11th game of AFLW. Blues coach Mathew Buck said he was careful not to dive too deep into the fixture's heritage. 'In the build-in, our players were pretty calm and we probably didn't lean into it too much,' he said. 'We've got nine players under twenty-two, so making sure we weren't over-aroused going into the game was really important.' The Blues' two standout rookies were mostly composed on debut. Father-daughter draft selection Sophie McKay and Poppy Scholz – the younger sister of Port Adelaide's 2024 Rising Star winner Matilda – looked like they will be AFLW players of the future. 'Poppy burst onto the scene there with a spin through the middle and then managed to kick a goal too,' Buck said. 'I'm just really excited for the player Poppy can become.' Both sides are in the middle of what some might describe as a rebuilding phase. Collingwood were the wooden-spooners last year with the league's worst percentage. The second-worst belonged to Carlton. It was appropriate therefore that these teams launched the AFLW's tenth season, given the league is in a rebuilding period itself. From the excitement within the community evident at that famous first game in 2017, the AFLW has stumbled when others in women's sport have stepped up. Sign up to From the Pocket: AFL Weekly Jonathan Horn brings expert analysis on the week's biggest AFL stories after newsletter promotion Officials have shunted the league's calendar around, toyed with midweek matches and early bounces, and kept the costs for clubs to a minimum. Only last week did the AFL Commission agree to lock in a late November grand final date for the women's competition each year. The long period instability prompted the inaugural No 1 draft pick, Nicola Barr, to write in the Guardian this week that the league must no longer be a 'side project' for the AFL. The profile of Barr – now at St Kilda after nine season at the GWS Giants – may already be exceeded by the woman taken No 1 last year, Collingwood's Ash Centra. At the club with the largest traditional fanbase, the athletic, silky-skilled midfielder-forward with the long sleeves and shimmering boots showed enough on Thursday to further inflate already vast expectations. After a first-half goal with her first kick, a third-quarter jinking pirouette underscored her potential, even if Centra's contribution at the final siren – three disposals and two tackles in managed minutes – highlighted there is more to come. Collingwood coach Sam Wright said she already has a cult following. 'Every time she went near the ball, whether she got it or not, you could hear the crowd get up and about, I just think it's so great for our game. I mean, the long sleeves, you can see her coming from a mile away,' he said. 'She's going to be a serious player.' Her debut was watched by a promising turnout on Thursday: the biggest home-and-away round attendance in the competition in two years according to Austadiums data. They also enjoyed several sequences from the Blues of breathless run and handball off half-back. Buck said he hoped his team left an impression on those that came with their 'brave' football. 'To have the opening game, to be able to bring that crowd in and put some exciting footy out there for them, hopefully they've left with a smile on their face.'
