Carol Vorderman Explains Exactly How Her Naked Treadmill Accident Happened

Carol Vorderman raised an eyebrow last year when she admitted to having a mishap while running naked on a treadmill, and now she's hilariously recounted what happened during an upcoming TV appearance.

The former 'Loose Women' legend details how she was left burnt and bruised after an embarrassing fail during an nude exercise session. 

Speaking on ITV2's 'Safeword', she reveals: “It was last summer and I thought it’s about time I did a bit of fitness. I hate the gym so I got this treadmill and put it in an alcove in a room at home. I started running and you don’t half get hot, don’t you, when you’re running? Me being me I got off and thought, ‘I’ll just take my kit off and get back on again’.”

Admitting she was naked, Carol continues: “I forgot that it was still running, got back on, I went like that, the belt was still going and I burned here [pointing to her bum], here [pointing to her legs] and all down my back. It was awful.”

While we already knew that Carol was game for a laugh, she proves to be a good sport on the outrageous celeb panel show, which sees guests rewarded points for the more embarrassment they can take. 

After her Twitter is hijacked by the opposing team, her followers are led to believe she made a sex tape many years ago, which is going to be released to the public.

The initial tweet reads: “Hey guys, just want to let you know, there might be a story in tomorrow’s papers about me #regretsfrommyyouth #vhs #betamax”. 

Wanting to win points, Carol initially allows the tweet to be posted, with the next tweet posted on her behalf reading: “Is it illegal for someone to release private videos of you from your past? #robkardashian #hairypast #bringbackbush”. 

Another adds: “I want to release it before the papers do.  You’re going to see my ‘Consonant Vowel Consonant Consonant’ #Twofromthetoponefromthebottom

After she receives messages from concerned friends advising her to delete the tweets, Carol is then threatened with an extreme tweet discussing a sex act, but finally uses her safe word to prevent things from going any further.

Safeword is on Thursdays at 10pm on ITV2.
