Fallon tweeted, "For those of your watching the show tonight -- the audience member that Will Ferrell transforms into a Bengal Tiger is not a plant it's Will's genius brain moving at 90 mph."

Will Ferrell's interview on "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon", took an unexpected turn after an audience member sat down on Ferrell's lap.

Although the "Elf" actor was present to promote his new holiday movie, "Spirited", a large portion of the interview was devoted to an audience member pretending that he was a baby Bengal Tiger.

Ferrell mentioned Justin Bieber when he was discussing animals. One audience member shouted, "Slay!" Ferrell misunderstoodly heard a sheep's "Baah" sound. Fallon asked Fallon: "Is that even a thing?" People respond with 'Justin Bieber' when you say that. Fallon joked that his guest heard a sheep, as "The Tonight Show," which will be broadcast in 2022, brings livestock into the studio audience.

Ferrell and Fallon prompted audience members to make animal sounds until Ferrell asked, "Are there any baby Bengal Tigers?" Fallon replied that he had heard of one. Ferrell made a joke about "I wish we had that baby Bengal," and Fallon grabbed one of the members from the first row. Ferrell brought the baby Bengal onto the stage and made him sit on Ferrell’s lap. While Will placed the "tiger", he asked him to sit on Ferrell's lap.

For the next few minutes, the audience member played along perfectly pretending to hiss and be quiet rawr. As "The Step Brothers" stars explained, he even batted at the pen Ferrell pulled from Fallon's desk. This is similar to how a cat would do.

Ferrell said that the "3-month-old tiger" was his pet and travels everywhere with him. Ferrell's hilarity reached new heights when the baby Bengal learned to speak in a German accent.

The video below shows you how comedy turned into comedy gold!

Fallon explained that the entire situation was spontaneous on Twitter for those who were curious.

"For those who are watching tonight's show - Will Ferrell turning into a Bengal Tiger is not a plant. It's Will's brilliant brain moving at 90 mph. We are grateful to all our fans from Austria.

Tonight's show is live and you can see that Will Ferrell transforms into a Bengal Tiger. It's not a "plant", it's Will's brilliant brain at 90 mph. We are grateful to the fans from Austria. #FallonFerrell
