Jimmy Fallon Digs up 7'1 Shaquille O'Neal Being Forced By Hugh Jackman To Harbor 6 Celebrities In A 3x3x7 Space

Shaquille O’Neal has always been a man in demand. For basketball, for base musical DJ, for starring in movies, or for business adventures. He has been a constant guest on talk shows hosted by Jimmy Fallon, Jimmy Kimmel, and James Cordon. Perhaps, what makes Shaq an interesting guest on these shows is his candid personality. Shaq is a man with a beast body and a sweetheart. However, in 2015 he was forced into a phone booth with six Hollywood celebrities as a part of the game show.

Shaq back and forth comedy with Charles Barkley is not the end. He possesses excellent comic timing and knows exactly how to make some of the hilarious dad jokes. In one of his appearances on The Jimmy Fallon Show, he made this joke. I need you guys say ‘What’ a whole lot louder, because this one right here is a winner’. What’s the hardest thing about sky diving?” When the audience shouted “WHAT?”, The Ground,” replied Big Diesel. He proved why NBA on TNT is an Emmy award-winning show.

As it happened Shaq made a quick guest appearance on Jimmy Fallon’s late-night show. Playing a Phone Booth game, the four-time NBA champion was made to stand in a phone booth that was smaller than O’Neal’s height. The former Los Angeles Lakers star was playing against Hollywood star Hugh Jackman.

As per the rule, Fallon told Jackman, “I have a question for you pal. What country invented Sauna?” After much guessing Jackman was finally able to answer the question. What followed was a nightmare for Shaq and the guests who followed him into the booth. One after the other, Fallon introduced the guests to the audience and they kept entering Shaw’s booth. With O’Neal being over 7ft, six celebrities were forced into a 3 feet x 3 feet x 7 feet space.

There is one more thing that Shaq is perhaps unbeatable and that is his unique quality to surprise people. He has a habit of going to the shopping areas and makes sure that he buys someone who wants but can’t have something. On one of Jimmy Fallon’s Late Night Shows, Shaq again proved there is no one better at this than him.

The $400 million man surprised Fallon with a locket that had the head of the fish attached to it as a pendant. Upon being asked, the four-time NBA champion revealed that he got it from the Hudson River, while he was on a walk. The fish pendant is considered the harbinger of good luck. A good man with good intentions always knows what is good for someone’s heart.
