Damon Heta sent Alexandra Palace into meltdown on Friday afternoon after he struck a sensational nine-dart finish triggering a £60k pay-out to a random fan in the crowd at the PDC World Darts Championship.
The stunning moment came during his second-round clash against English player Luke Woodhouse.
The 37-year-old had gone down a set against Woodhouse, who broke him in the fifth leg to clinch the first exchange 3-2.
But Heta, who is ranked ninth in the world, hit back in the second term with an outstanding passage of play, going 2-1 up with a stunning nine-dart finish, before rounding pulling level with Woodhouse to win the second set 3-1.
The 37-year-old Australian, who hails from Perth, leapt around the stage in jubilation, even at one point appearing to jump off the stage.
His opponent, Woodhouse, was seen celebrating the moment with him, jumping up and down on the stage, before giving the Aussie star a huge and a handshake.
Heta’s highest finish at the World Darts Championship came earlier this year, where he was knocked out in the last 16 back in January.
