Moment skinny dipping friends dive naked into pool before making shock discovery

News.com.au21-05-2025

This is the hilarious moment a pair of skinny dippers get a serious shock after they jump into their 'private pool' – only to notice they aren't alone.
Aussie friends Karina Horton, 24, and Bella, 20, stripped off for a dip after treating themselves to a villa stay during their travels.
They were travelling around Bali, Indonesia, but decided they needed a touch of luxury along the way – so booked this modern, white-walled haven.
Upon arrival at 6am, the women immediately ditched their clothes and threw themselves into the water to cool off.
Believing themselves completely alone, the pair were stunned when a man emerged from his room to see what was going on.
The villa turned out not to be private at all.
Amusing footage shows the women splashing and swimming in the rectangular pool, making the most of their retreat.
Suddenly, Bella spots the onlooker off camera and shrieks to alert Karina.
The pair sheepishly wave at their unexpected guest as he hangs around to make small talk.
A male voice can be heard saying: 'You woke me up, where are you from?'
They answer 'Australia', before waiting for him to leave.
They climb out of the water after he has retreated and hastily pull on their towels.
The travellers shared their hilarious slip-up on TikTok, where the video has amassed 20 million views.
Karina said: 'We were expecting a private villa, not a shared one.
'We wanted a swim in the pool after a hot travel day.
'Then we jumped in, and a man came out of his room.
'We were shocked and surprised, but we then looked online and realised it wasn't advertised as shared or private.'
The clip is captioned: 'POV: we thought we booked a private villa but when we arrived at 6am we soon realised …'
Karina also shared some advice for her followers: 'Pro tip: check your villa is shared or private.'
Karina, a photographer, and Bella, a business owner, added: 'We are young and adapted to the setting fast for our safety.
'But to other travellers, check the room option photos and details.
'Not just the overall accommodation, as you never know what room you could get.'
The clip has gathered 1.7 million likes and over 700 comments from users on TikTok.
One person said: 'Omggg HAHAH are you guys skinny dipping.'
Caoimhe added: 'The giggles, I can't.'
Lara said: 'I'm dying.'
Jaida said: 'Omg this is too funny!'
Kennedy added: 'Skinny dipping as soon as you get there is crazy.'
The pair were travelling in Bali, Indonesia.

Tommy Lee and wife Brittany Furlan get closer after catfishing scandal

Brittany Furlan's catfishing scandal has brought her and Tommy Lee back together. The 38-year-old actress revealed last month she had moved out of their marital home and into a hotel after confessing to having been catfished - where someone poses as someone else online - on Snapchat by an unidentified user pretending to be Falling In Reverse frontman Ronnie Radke. However, she's admitted the temporary separation made her and the 62-year-old rocker realise how much they mean to one another. Speaking on her and Brittany Schmitt's This Is The Worst podcast, she said: 'All of this happening has weirdly brought us together, which is really strange. 'I think we really faced like, 'Oh, what would life really be like without each other?'' However, Brittany admitted there is still a lot of "healing" to be done within their six-year marriage. She said: 'We've been through this situation similarly before, and it's hard, and all I can say is that relationships are complicated and everyone has their s*** and we're not immune to that just because we're in the public eye." The Airplane Mode actress had ended up being catfished because she felt "so lonely" within her marriage to Tommy. She admitted: 'I was so lonely. I was messaging Chat GPT for affection. I'm like, 'It talks to you lovingly and it says nice things to you and it's sweet to you and if it could kiss me I would let it.'' And so when the person posing as Ronnie began messaging her, she felt "better" than when chatting to AI and their friendly conversation began to turn more intimate. The Drugstore June actress previously admitted the catfishing scandal had been "embarrassing" for her and Tommy. She said on TikTok: "This is embarrassing for me, embarrassing for my husband. "This whole f***ing thing is embarrassing. I've been struggling with s*** at home [and] I'm in a f***ing hotel. Like, leave us f***ing alone, bro. … I'm done. Anyone can think what they will. All good." Meanwhile, Ronnie had claimed the FBI were investigating who had been posing as him because 'multiple other girls' besides Brittany had been 'tricked and duped' by the mystery person. He told TMZ: 'The FBI is now involved. It's a felony. It's a crime. It's pretty serious, I guess."

AI-generated Pope sermons flood YouTube, TikTok

AI-generated videos and audios of Pope Leo XIV are populating rapidly online, racking up views as platforms struggle to police them. An AFP investigation identified dozens of YouTube and TikTok pages that have been churning out AI-generated messages delivered in the pope's voice or otherwise attributed to him since he took charge of the Catholic Church last month. The hundreds of fabricated sermons and speeches, in English and Spanish, underscore how easily hoaxes created using artificial intelligence can elude detection and dupe viewers. "There's natural interest in what the new pope has to say, and people don't yet know his stance and style," said University of Washington professor emeritus Oren Etzioni, founder of a nonprofit focused on fighting deepfakes. "A perfect opportunity to sow mischief with AI-generated misinformation." After AFP presented YouTube with 26 channels posting predominantly AI-generated pope content, the platform terminated 16 of them for violating its policies against spam, deceptive practices and scams, and another for violating YouTube's terms of service. "We terminated several channels flagged to us by AFP for violating our Spam policies and Terms of Service," spokesperson Jack Malon said. The company also booted an additional six pages from its partner program allowing creators to monetize their content. TikTok similarly removed 11 accounts that AFP pointed out -- with over 1.3 million combined followers -- citing the platform's policies against impersonation, harmful misinformation and misleading AI-generated content of public figures. - 'Chaotic uses' - With names such as "Pope Leo XIV Vision," the social media pages portrayed the pontiff supposedly offering a flurry of warnings and lessons he never preached. But disclaimers annotating their use of AI were often hard to find -- and sometimes nonexistent. On YouTube, a label demarcating "altered or synthetic content" is required for material that makes someone appear to say something they did not. But such disclosures only show up toward the bottom of each video's click-to-open description. A YouTube spokesperson said the company has since applied a more prominent label to some videos on the channels flagged by AFP that were not found to have violated the platform's guidelines. TikTok also requires creators to label posts sharing realistic AI-generated content, though several pope-centric videos went unmarked. A TikTok spokesperson said the company proactively removes policy-violating content and uses verified badges to signal authentic accounts. Brian Patrick Green, director of technology ethics at Santa Clara University, said the moderation difficulties are the result of rapid AI developments inspiring "chaotic uses of the technology." Many clips on the YouTube channels AFP identified amassed tens of thousands of views before being deactivated. On TikTok, one Spanish-language video received 9.6 million views while claiming to show Leo preaching about the value of supportive women. Another, which carried an AI label but still fooled viewers, was watched some 32.9 million times. No video on the pope's official Instagram page has more than 6 million views. Experts say even seemingly harmless fakes can be problematic especially if used to farm engagement for accounts that might later sell their audiences or pivot to other misinformation. The AI-generated sermons not only "corrode the pope's moral authority" and "make whatever he actually says less believable," Green said, but could be harnessed "to build up trust around your channel before having the pope say something outrageous or politically expedient." The pope himself has also warned about the risks of AI, while Vatican News called out a deepfake that purported to show Leo praising Burkina Faso leader Ibrahim Traore, who seized power in a 2022 coup. AFP also debunked clips depicting the pope, who holds American and Peruvian citizenships, criticizing US Vice President JD Vance and Peru's President Dina Boluarte. "There's a real crisis here," Green said. "We're going to have to figure out some way to know whether things are real or fake."

From TikTok to TV, Robert Irwin is hot property

The stars are aligning for Robert Irwin. For a start, America's ongoing fascination with Australia's preternaturally perky, croc-wrangling family has delivered a $58 million, media-impact jackpot for underwear-maker Bonds after the buff 21-year-old appeared in the brand's racy campaign designed to help it break into the $13 billion US men's market. A Bonds analysis of the campaign, which launched in April, revealed that it had generated a staggering nine billion 'media impressions' in its first 24 hours in the US. How much Bonds, which manufactures offshore and was sold to American giant Hanes in 2016, paid Irwin is unclear, but he's pulled off something previous brand ambassadors, such as Sarah Murdoch, Paul Mercurio, Pat Rafter and even Chesty Bond, couldn't: becoming the second-most popular global trending topic on TikTok in the first week of the launch. Crikey! Thanks to Irwin's khaki-clad, in-house management team, which is headed by 'mummager' Terri, the youngest Irwin is fast becoming the brightest star in the Irwin firmament, flogging everything from Twisties and Hello Fresh to Pop! dolls and holiday parks. (The Irwin empire already includes a multimillion-dollar property portfolio, from Australia Zoo to the 130,000-hectare Steve Irwin Wildlife Reserve in Cape York, and a slew of residual-earning TV shows, books and magazines.) Irwin's media career started in 2004 when a horrified world watched his dad, Steve, cradle his month-old son while dangling a chicken carcass over the snapping jaws of a 3.8-metre-long saltwater croc. The former chairman of the National Australia Day Council, Lisa Curry, later revealed the stunt cost Irwin snr the Australian of the Year honour. But the Irwin hatchling survived. Homeschooled at Australia Zoo while surrounded by crocodile-infested ponds and gawking tourists, he was a regular on Jimmy Fallon's The Tonight Show by his teen years. In 2024, he got his own wax effigy next to his father's at Madame Tussauds Sydney. He has also co-hosted two seasons of Australia's I'm a Celebrity … Get Me out of Here!, was nominated for a Gold Logie, and won this year's AACTA for 'favourite media personality'. Even his fledgling love life has become tabloid fodder. And now he's on the cusp of his biggest showbiz break yet: deep in training to compete on the US television series Dancing with the Stars, just as big sister Bindi triumphantly did a decade ago. It doesn't get much bigger. Last year's finale drew a whopping 7.95 million viewers and garnered 32 million votes. Now that's a lot of undies.
