NBA Hall of Famer Micahel Jordan struck fear into his opponent’s hearts daily but his weakness was snakes — his son Marcus disclosed on his podcast this week.

Marcus, 32, revealed the fear in a story about how he pranked his legendary father with a bunch of toy snakes as a kid.

He was alongside cohost and girlfriend Larsa Pippen on their podcast Separation Anxiety and described the trick played and his father’s hidden fear.

“He is terrified of snakes. My dad is terrified of snakes.”

“There is this one time me and my brother, we were young, probably been about 12 and 14.”

“We had got a bunch of rubber snakes and threw them in my dad’s room, on top of the bed.”

“I will never forget when he got home. We were grounded.”

Larsa jumped in and asked if Michael was scared or mad and why he reacted that way.

“I think he was caught off guard, and he realized they weren’t real after a while.” Marcus continued.

“He was running round the house trying to find out who pranked him.”

“At first he thought they were real he was like “what the” and then he realized it was a prank.'”

The good news for Michael is that his hidden fear was revealed after his playing career since fans would take any step to stop him.

He was allegedly poisoned before an NBA finals game from a local pizza place in Utah in 1997.

Micahel’s iconic “Flu Game” was confirmed by his trainer, Tim Grover, in an interview with ESPN, but he revealed it was food poisoning.

“Five guys came to deliver this pizza. I take the pizza, and I tell them: “I’ve got a bad feeling about this. … I’ve just got a bad feeling about this.”

“Immediately, I told him it’s food poisoning. Not the flu.”

Regarding Marcus and Larsa, the two have dated since 2022 and were recently rumored to be engaged.

However, Larsa quickly shot that down but said, “It’s in the works.”
