As Hamill took to the stage, his pants suddenly dropped to his knees, and all the people in the front row were left completely shocked. Fortunately, the lectern in front of him was tall enough to offer adequate cover to stop the mishap from becoming a disaster.
Despite the unexpected twist, Hamill handled those few minutes with impressive calm. He casually pulled his trousers back up without skipping a beat, tucked the shirt tails in, and went on with his presentation as if nothing had gone wrong. Members of the audience, especially those in the front rows, looked at each other in amazement, clearly caught off guard by what had just happened.
