Eli Roth Almost Dies

Eli Roth is a great actor but not a great kayaker (or maybe just an unlucky one). TMZ reports that the “Inglourious Basterds” star was kayaking in Careyes, Mexico and was pulled under by a sinkhole. He further tells TMZ he tried climbing onto a rock covered in sea urchins, but was engulfed by another wave. He tried to remain balanced on the rock until the sea urchins unleashed spikes all over his body.

Luckily a fisherman picked up Roth and took him back to shore. Unfortunately he was greeted by a fan who insisted Roth meet his son. Eli’s response you ask? ”Um, really, I just almost died out there.”
