During a 2017 event, former Vice President Joe Biden told stories of his old lifeguard days, but things got awkward when he mentioned he used to let children play with his leg hair.

“And by the way, you know I sit on the stand and it’d get hot. I got a lot of — I got hairy legs … that turn blonde in the sun. And the kids used to come up and reach in the pool and rub my leg down so it was straight and then watch the hair come back up again. They’d look at it,” Biden said during a ceremony that renamed the community pool after him in Wilmington, Delaware.

Biden added, “So I learned about roaches and I learned about kids jumping on my lap. I love kids jumping on my lap.”

This clip from 2017 was taken from Biden’s “Corn Pop” story, which went viral back in September.
