Addressing the situation on his Impaulsive podcast, Logan admitted he never intended to steal his brother’s thunder.

He said: “A lot of people asking about this moment from the fight. They’re saying ‘why did you knock your brother’s hat off? What were you spraying in that yellow can? Did you try to steal his moment?’ No!

“Guys I was just trying to help Jake promote his [bodyspray] and my motor skills got the best of me.

“I knocked his hat off. It went to the floor. I felt so stupid. Jake, I’m sorry I ruined one of the biggest moments of your life.”
