Things get wild behind the curtain for Shaq and Jimmy Fallon's What's Behind Me? game

Three Frankenstein monsters bouncing on trampolines while licking lollipops, Shrek and Abraham Lincoln sharing a milkshake, and the Statue of Liberty Flossing by a goat for a touchdown celebration dance arrived on The Tonight Show Monday.

Similar to Jimmy Fallon’s Box of Lies, in which his guests open a box to find something as absurd as a plastic hand inside a tube of lipstick, the late-night host played What’s Behind Me? with Shaquille O’Neal. Fallon and the former NBA star took turns getting the other to guess the unthinkable scenes playing out behind them.

The game also bore a slight resemblance to an old Whose Line Is It Anyway? bit called News Flash, during which Colin Mochrie would have to guess the scene digitally inserted on the green screen behind him.

Once they got the ball rolling, O’Neal and Fallon raced through these challenges with ease, including the squirrel applying sunblock on a baby. (Correction: Man baby.)
