The 43-year-old actor helped to host the event and presented Douglas with Danny Kaye Humanitarian Peace Award, but had no idea that he’d be taking home a prize too, Contactmusic reported.

At the end of the ceremony, Damon was presented with a trophy to recognise his work with clean water and sanitation charity water.org.
