'That did NOT come out right!' Tommy Little's shocking gaffe on The Sunday Project leaves his co-hosts horrified
As the old saying goes, 'Anything can happen on live TV'.
And on The Sunday Project, things became rather awkward when Tommy Little made a very rude joke during a news bulletin.
The panel was discussing an Aussie inventor named David Mayman, who flew around the Sydney Opera House using a jetpack over the weekend.
'I'm jetpacking off on you!' Things became rather awkward on The Sunday Project when Tommy Little (pictured) made a very rude joke during a news bulletin
Tommy was visibly delighted by footage of David's incredible feat and decided to make a joke about masturbation.
He said: 'It's a real line in the sand. I care about the environment, but if someone told me, "Hey, you can all have jetpacks, but the world will end in a couple of years", I'd be like, "I'm wearing a jetpack".
'I'm not even hearing the end of that sentence 'cause I'm jetpacking off on you!'
Oops! After Tommy's bizarre joke about 'jetpacking off', fellow panellist Sarah Harris grimaced
'Jetpacking off' sounded awkwardly similar to the term 'jacking off', a crude euphemism for male masturbation.
After Tommy's bizarre slip of the tongue, there was a moment of stunned silence before co-host Sarah Harris facepalmed at the desk.
She groaned: 'Oh… that did not come out right.'
He said what?! Sarah (right) facepalmed while Hamish McDonald (left) sat in stunned silence
Tommy laughed nervously and said: 'Why? Because I said "I'm jetpacking off on you"? It does sound like a weird move...'
As fellow panellist Susie Youssef tried to steer the segment back to the day's news, Tommy continued to dig himself into a hole.
'You don't want to hear more about me "jetpacking off" on you?' he asked. 'Guys, it's not a real thing! I don't know why you're all…'
