‘Oh damn, sorry’: Shaquille O’Neal leaves panel in stitches after hilarious live TV mishap

As long as Shaquille O’Neal is on the court, there will never be a dull moment.

The 52-year-old NBA superstar has won four championships during his career, and his fame has brought him a lot of media coverage both in the United States and abroad.

O’Neal is a frequent guest on “NBA Insider,” a game-day panel featuring other experts.

But on Wednesday (AEDT), the show descended into chaos when O’Neill got so excited that he broke a vital piece of equipment – the big-screen TV.

During halftime of the game between the Milwaukee Bucks and the Orlando Magic, the beloved figure walks up to the screen as the group prepares to analyze footage of some of the events that have transpired so far.

Just as host Kenny Smith was about to start his analysis, O’Neal slapped the screen with his bear-sized hand, and a huge crack immediately appeared in the middle of the screen.

“Oh, damn, sorry,” he said.

Smith then expressed his opinion on the matter.

“We’ll see if it works… No,” he said.

“I had this kind of TV when I was a kid, so I can definitely do it.”

In addition to Smith and O’Neal, hosts for the popular show include announcer Ernie Johnson and former league MVP Charles Barkley.
