"He's proper mad at you": Why Karl walked off set
It’s no secret that Today host Karl Stefanovic hates creepy crawlies of all types. So, when he was talking with some snake catchers this morning, the worst thing happened.
Stefanovic and co-host, Allison Langdon, were chatting to a trio of Queensland snake catchers and as they wrapped up the interview, something gave Stefanovic the fright of his life.
Unbeknownst to Stefanovic, weather presenter Tim Davies was hiding behind the couch he was sitting on.
Davies had planned the prank and he reached up from behind the couch to touch Stefanovic’s shoulder as the chat was wrapping up.
"Good on you, guys. Thanks for being with us. Appreciate. What a gorgeous day," Stefanovic said before screaming loudly. As Langdon burst out laughing and then when he realised what had happened, Stefanovic threw a pillow at Davies.
But that’s when Stefanovic stood up and walked off set.
As he walked away, he could be heard muttering under his breath.
Langdon admonished Davies saying: "That's the best. He is proper mad with you, Tim," she said.
"Note, the moment the team fell apart, 8:53.57," she added.
