Watch: Ben Boyce's shock encounter with idol Kevin Hart

This is the moment Ben Boyce got the shock of his life - an encounter with his idol Kevin Hart.

The Edge Afternoon's host was set up for the meeting by Jono and Sharyn, who led him on a secret trip to Sydney thanks to the new movie, Secret Life of Pets 2.

With a blindfold and headphones on, Boyce was unable to know what was happening and sat in silence waiting for what was to come.

Suddenly they were removed and to his massive surprise, he was brought face-to-face with a grinning Hart.

"Holy sh*t!" Boyce exclaimed. "Oh, it's Kevin Hart! Oh my god! I love Kevin Hart!"
