She might be 69-years old, but that didn't stop Helen Mirren from participating in a good old-fashioned helium prank on the Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon.

The A-list actress was challenged by the TV host to inhale a helium balloon while answering his questions - but she took things even further by offering to recreate her Oscars acceptance speech.

"I haven't done this since I was about 11," says Mirren.

"Welcome to The Tonight Show!" replies Jimmy.

Fallon gifts Mirren with a bright red balloon, to which she says, "alright, suck in," with a cheeky shrug of her shoulders.

What follows is a hilarious rendition of her Oscars speech, which Jimmy can hardly contain himself over.

We challenge you to watch the duo try and talk to each other after inhaling helium and not laugh.
