Naomi
Watts in Horrific King Kong Fall
11/28/05
Hollywood
star Naomi Watts was nearly left paralyzed after a horrific fall on the
New Zealand set of King Kong. Watts, who plays Ann Darrow in the hotly
anticipated remake, fell heavily from a height into a ditch - to the shock
of cast and crew. But she insists her rigorous practice of yoga
saved her from any lasting damage.
She
says, "I fell with quite a lot of force and I was jammed up in a
hole. "I had a brief period when I couldn't move and I thought I may
be paralysed. I thought, 'This is it.' But after a few seconds I was able
to move and they slowly got me out. "I thought, 'Thank goodness for
my yoga.' It had made me supple and agile."
