London, Feb 23 (Inditop.com) Actress Scarlett Johansson narrowly escaped death after a wild horse she was riding during the shooting of “The Other Boleyn Girl” fell on her.
“I was riding side saddle with this 400 pound costume on and I always carried around (travelled with) this Bulgarian body guard… It had been raining and we rode up this muddy embankment and suddenly the horse was being temperamental,” dailystar.co.uk quoted her as saying.
“He (the horse) reared up and I felt majestic on top until his whole a** slid underneath him and he started to roll over on one side,” she added.
Johansson said she felt she would die until the her bodyguard came to her rescue.
“I thought for sure this was going to crush my legs and out of nowhere my Bulgarian bodyguard flew in and stop, dropped, and he rolled, and he carried me sailing through the air! I knew he would save my life one day, and he did,” she said.
