The one-time NRL champ said he was doing an interview with UK-born star Jason Statham (pictured) when The Transporter actor's bodyguard crash-tackled him to the ground. The cheeky former Cronulla Shark's star said that he was wearing his old clubs swimmers and had decided to show them to an unsuspecting Statham.
Beau continued: '...I had the shark Speedos (on), remember them, basically, (they) had a tail at the back and a little shark head on the front... 'So the last question was a truth or dare. And I said, "Mate, Truth or Dare, what would you like?" He said, "I'll take dare". I said, "Well, you've dared me to show you what I would wear if I was a Commonwealth Games diver.".
