"All I had was me jocks on and he was chasing me up the street and I'm just like, maaate!"

He was in his undies, but it didn't stop this legend from chasing down the man who drove into his shop.

Being in his underpants didn't stop absolute legend Daniel McConnell from chasing down the person who drove into his mate's Brisbane shop and tried to get away.

In a brilliantly Australian interview with Today, McConnell had host Lisa Wilkinson in stitches with lines like: "All I had was me jocks on and he was chasing me up the street and I'm just like, mate!".

And does he feel like a hero?

"Not really. It's just something you've got to do for your community, mate."

Bravo, buddy.
