DiCaprio’s brush with death
July 22nd, 2010 - 2:08 pm ICT by IANSLondon, July 22 (IANS) Hollywood actor Leonardo DiCaprio had a brush with death during a diving trip off the Galapagos Islands. He felt suffocated while trying to shoot a school of stingray.
“I was trying to get footage with a rinky-dink camera. I looked down, because I was exerting myself a lot, and I think the tanks weren’t fastened properly and I had, like 40 pounds of pressure,” contactmusic.com quoted him as saying.
He admits there was a moment when his life flashed before him: “All you think about at that moment is like ‘Get me the hell out of this situation’.”
