VideoDanny Green and Adrian Barich get slimed

Little cancer fighter Noah Johnson had the Telethon crowd in stitches when he forced Channel 7NEWSs presenter Adrian Barich into the slime machine with boxer Danny Green.

The 12-year-old’s story tugged on the heartstrings of people around WA when a powerful photograph of his face appeared on the front page of Saturday’s The West Australian.

But Noah showed a more cheeky side to himself while on stage at Telethon on Sunday.

World champion Green had just lost a challenge to the former West Coast Eagle and was set to hop inside the slime machine by himself as a punishment, but Noah had other plans.

When the young boy was welcomed on stage to pull a string to release the slime onto Green, he decided he wasn’t happy with Barich getting off scot-free.

“We should put Barra in the machine instead,” Noah said

Challenge host Larry Emdur didn’t hesitate.

“Oh, what about both boys? Let’s do a double slime, Noah wants a double slime!” Emdur said.

Barich and Green jumped into the machine and embraced in a long hug as they waited for the green slime to be released.

Noah laughed as he watched the pair get covered in green goo and the unexpected double slime had the crowd cheering.
