Last night we learned that Kevin Hart has absolutely zero tolerance when it comes to being around wild animals. He’s terrified of them. It doesn’t matter if it’s a bird, snake, or tarantula. Kevin Hart’s going to lose his damn bananas.
There was a lot going on last night on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. It was Jimmy’s birthday, comedian Kevin Hart co-hosted the entire show, and Robert Irwin (Steve Irwin’s son) was on the show to scare the complete piss out of Kevin Hart by busting out some wild animals.
This clip picked up half a million views overnight and for good reason. Watching Kevin Hart have a meltdown from being in the proximity of wild animals is nothing short of hilarious. He’s a baby man.
This was obviously a controlled environment with a bunch of trained handlers around to make sure everything went perfectly. Kevin was never in any danger. But his brain wouldn’t allow him to see that. All he saw was fangs, talons, and poison.
The whole Irwin family is in New York this week to talk about the family’s upcoming show on Animal Planet, a show that will continue the legacy of the late, great Steve Irwin. I’d be lying if I said it’s not emotional to see his life live on through his wonderful kids. I grew up on Steve Irwin’s show, watching it every day after school.
Here’s Robert Irwin talking about the family’s new show on Animal Planet:
Going back to that Kevin Hart clip, I almost want to feel bad for the man because he’s clearly scared shitless by animals but at the same time if you can’t trust that you’re in good hands with Steve Irwin’s son then you’re out of touch with reality.
Steve Irwin’s Son Has Grown Up To Look And Act Just Like His Dad, So ALL ABOARD The Feels Train!!!
What did he think was going to happen to him on late-night TV? Did he really think that snake, tarantula, or raptor was going to end his life in front of a live studio audience? Did he think that NBC would ever put him in harm’s way? C’mon man.
