Bowen Yang said he narrowly escaped death while filming an episode of Nora from Queens in Iceland.
Entertainment Weekly reported the Saturday Night Live star told of his near-death experience during the podcast Las Culturistas.
The crew sent up a drone to film his ride on a horse, but that turned out to be an unfortunate decision.
“Even hundreds of yards away, these horses can clock. They were spooked and then I almost [fell off],” he said. “I almost got bucked, and there was part of me, though, that was like, ‘This is a good way to go.'”
The comic also shared that that wasn’t his only incident while in Iceland.
According to Pride, Yang walked around for a while with toilet paper stuck to his shoe after coming out of the bathroom.
That wasn’t the worse of it.
He said he later discovered he had been walking around all day “with a big brown” on his pants.
Fortunately, he did not die from embarrassment.
