#24: Don’t Throw Axes on Live TV
Year: 2015
Network: Fox
Live television is a breeding ground for the unexpected… In the midst of a live “Fox and Friends” broadcast, Hegseth embarked on an adventurous endeavor. However, the outcome was far from the intended mark, as the axe took an unforeseen trajectory, making a beeline for a drummer who happened to be performing right behind the bullseye.

Jef Prosperie, the drummer hailing from the New York West Point drummers, found himself on the receiving end of this axe’s ill-fated flight during his live drum solo on national TV. Fortunately, Prosperie managed to recover from the startling incident, but it stands as a vivid testament to the exhilarating unpredictability that accompanies live television broadcasts.
