Amber, who is married to AFL star Jeremy Laidler, 30, laughed off the blooper and shared footage to Instagram of the moment she got scared on camera.
‘That scared the s**t out of me,’ Amber said in the video, while standing by a busy road in Sydney’s Mosman.
Poking fun at herself, she wrote in the caption: ‘Today we learnt I don’t scare easily… and I’m prepared to use a hand mic as a weapon.’
Erin Holland, who was crowned Miss World Australia in 2013, commented below the clip: ‘This is gold.’
