Joe also said that he has now even asked his friend to edit the video as he can’t ‘have that living on there forever’.
He admitted: ‘I’m so embarrassed by what’s happened today. Basically, I filmed my first P.E with Joe yesterday, live at 9am, right.
‘I pressed the live button just on my YouTube stream, and just before, I’m talking 20 seconds before, something slipped out Mark… and you can guess what it will be Mark…’
To which Mark quipped: ‘How did it happen Joe? Because I’m looking at it, you’re so professional with your [YouTube] lives and stuff, you’re incredible with what you do, but how did you make the mistake?

Confession: Joe also told host Mark (pictured) that he has now even asked his friend to edit the video as he can’t ‘have that living on there forever’
‘Did you already press “live” and you didn’t know you were live? What went wrong?’
With Joe explaining: ‘No, listen 800,000 people have seen that video. I didn’t know. When you go live, you press live and there’s about a 20 seconds delay but for some reason the link had opened and it was buffering and it basically got the sound.
‘So I’ve let out this giant – honestly, the longest ripper I’ve ever let out in my life. I didn’t realise it was live so I’ve done the ripper, “Ooo, 5,4,3,2,1”, I jumped in and I only found out today.’
Mark was quick to reassure the fitness star as he added: ‘Oh incredible, but listen you’re so good with the kids and kids love a trump. I mean my little cousins, I’m always trumping in front of them.
Oh dear! Joe said: ‘I pressed the live button just on my YouTube stream, and just before, I’m talking 20 seconds before, something slipped out Mark… and you can guess what it will be Mark…’ (pictured during said workout)
‘They go “Mark, Mark, Mark, trump!” because it is the best noise, and it makes us laugh. As my Nana always says, “Wherever you may be, let your wind run free. Church or chapel, let your old… rattle.”‘
Yet despite being left embarrassed, Joe admitted he has seen the funny side and noted how hilarious the comments are.
He said: ‘Well that’s what happened! And I tell you what, some of the comments are hilarious!
‘I’ve got to be honest, I’ve gone back to the video and got my mate to edit it out because I can’t have that living on there forever.’
PE With Joe viewers were left in hysterics on Monday after Joe appeared to break wind at the start of his live workout.
Awkward! ‘So I’ve let out this giant – honestly, the longest ripper I’ve ever let out in my life. I didn’t realise it was live so I’ve done the ripper, “Ooo, 5,4,3,2,1”, I jumped in and I only found out today,’ he confessed (the start of Joe’s workout where he broke wind)
As the Body Coach star let the video play out at the beginning before starting the workout, some eagle-eared fans heard a noise resembling the passing of gas.
While Joe, who was off camera, could be heard saying: ‘3, 2, 1, live now… go, go, go!’
Fans were left in hysterics over the start of the video as they questioned whether Joe had accidentally broke wind without realising he was on camera.
One person said: ‘That wasn’t what it sounded like at the start surely..!? Joe, Joe Joe…’
A different fan put: ‘Can someone please tell me if that was real at the start,’ they added: ‘Happens to us all.’
Another account claimed: ‘Listen to the massive fart at the beginning …….. #PEwithjoe.’
Did he? Fans were left in hysterics on Monday as they questioned whether Joe had accidentally broke wind without realising he was on camera
While another follower commented: ‘Anyone heard that thing at the start?’
Although one viewer had a logical explanation for the noise and said that it was likely due to Joe’s workout shorts, responding to the furore, they noted: ‘Probably his shorts.’
It comes after Joe announced that he will recommence his PE With Joe YouTube series from Monday January 11.
The fitness star, who launched the initiative when the UK was plunged into its first lockdown in March 2020, made the announcement on Twitter, after a third lockdown was announced by Prime Minister Boris Johnson last Monday.

‘PE with Joe is back Monday 11th January at 9AM (UK time). Please Retweet and let as many parents and schools as possible know. The sessions will be live Mon, Wed & Fri’s at 9AM on YouTube,’ he posted.
He also shared a video of himself explaining why he is reinstating the online classes, aimed to keep children and fit when schools are closed.
‘Hello to all the parents and teachers out there. I’m bringing PE With Joe back.
‘I’m sorry I can’t commit to all five days. I’m hoping three days is going to help young children and family get through this difficult time when schools are closed, to bring some energy, change their mood, lift their spirits and their mental health. Just kick their day off with something positive.
‘Share this message, let your schools and your friends and family, and anyone with young children [know].
Announcement: He posted the news to Twitter last week after the third lockdown was announced
‘I’m really looking forward to it. They’re going to be 20 minutes long, so nice and short. Focused on exercise for young children. Suitable for all ages. Similar to what I did during the first lockdown, but much shorter. I hope to see you there on Monday with the kids.’
Last Monday, the PM announced that schools across England will remain shut as part of a new national coronavirus lockdown.
He set out the ‘next steps’ in the Government’s Covid-19 response in an address to the nation.
England is facing blanket restrictions similar to those imposed during the first lockdown last spring, until the most vulnerable are vaccinated. The PM said that it will be reviewed in mid-February
Schools will remain shut to all but vulnerable children and the children of key workers in the coming weeks.

Father-of-two Joe kept families in shape across the first 2020 lockdown, when schools were closed across the country.
His online workouts went viral and he racked up a huge global following from it.
He has just launched his new app, which has reportedly made him more than £9million in a week.
The Body Coach app was launched on iPhone and iPad platforms at the start of December at a discounted price of £69.99, down from the usual cost of £89.99.
It has now been claimed the product has been ‘raking’ in around £46,000 an hour after 130,000 people signed up between Christmas and the New Year.
An insider told The Sun: ‘Joe’s Body Coach programme has always been hugely popular but the app version is a runaway hit.
‘It was on a discount, meaning it was even more appealing, especially as Brits started looking to get into shape after Christmas.
‘The app was taking around £46,000 an hour….he’s absolutely raking it in.’
