Robert Irwin has fans in stitches after rewatching a long-lost 2015 clip that shows him crashing big sister Bindi Irwin’s Dancing With the Stars rehearsal — and the result is pure chaos, joy, and childhood magic. Laughing as he revisited the footage, Robert admitted, “This is so embarrassing!” but viewers couldn’t get enough of the adorable throwback.
The now-viral clip captures a moment that perfectly sums up the Irwin family spirit — spontaneous, fearless, and full of laughter. A then-tiny Robert bursts into Bindi’s rehearsal with boundless energy, twirling, spinning, and breaking into dance moves that had everyone in the room howling with laughter.
Even Bindi herself couldn’t contain her amusement. Caught mid-step, she’s seen stopping in disbelief before collapsing into laughter as her little brother steals the spotlight. “He just came in like a whirlwind,” Bindi recalled. “There was no stopping him — and honestly, it made the day so much brighter.”
The throwback was shared during a behind-the-scenes interview, where Robert and Bindi reflected on how much life has changed since those DWTS days. Robert joked that watching the clip made him realize just how much confidence he had as a kid. “I didn’t even think twice — I just went for it. I guess not much has changed,” he laughed.
Fans were quick to flood the comments with love, calling it “the most Irwin moment ever.” Many wrote that it was heartwarming to see Robert’s playful personality shining even back then, while others pointed out how his fun, fearless energy is exactly what makes him such a natural entertainer today.

For long-time fans of the Irwins, the clip feels like a time capsule — a window into a simpler time when Bindi was preparing for her big DWTS win and Robert was just a cheeky kid cheering her on from the sidelines. “You could see even then he was meant for the spotlight,” one fan commented.
As the throwback continues to spread, many say it’s exactly the kind of wholesome content the world needs right now. “In a world full of negativity, the Irwins always bring joy,” another fan wrote. “Seeing Robert’s pure happiness reminds us why we love this family so much.”
Years later, the video still captures what makes the Irwins so special — laughter, love, and the fearless joy that Steve and Terri passed down to their kids. And judging by the reactions, fans agree: some childhood moments truly never lose their magic.
