And you thought Kiefer had a bad day on 24


Kiefer Sutherland: "An Orangutan almost killed me once"
Sutherland was shooting a scene in a 1988 film with his co-star and friend Robert Downey Jr when things got a little out of hand. He recalls, "We were doing a scene in a VW bus and I was driving and Bobby was in the passenger seat and we were being towed by another vehicle so that I wouldn't actually have to drive. "At some point there was an orangutan sitting in between us. They're incredibly and deceptively strong. And Bobby was really nervous about this to begin with. "At some point in the middle of the scene this orangutan... turns and faces me and sits in my lap. I start to laugh until she puts her arms around my neck. "And she starts to hold tight and everytime I start to move she squeezes a little tighter. And then she starts to gyrate her hips on my leg, and all I can hear over the walkie talkie is don't move. "Bobby says, 'Forget this' - and this is one of my best friends - crawls out the side window, jumps on top of the van... until this orangutan sprayed the entire front of the car. It was literally like I had been slimed in Ghostbusters. You can either go along for the ride, or she can kill you."
