AceShowbiz - Jameela Jamil almost lost her life while trying to keep up with energetic "The Good Place" co-star Ted Danson.
The 33-year-old couldn't keep pace with the "Cheers" star on set and admits working with him often left her exhausted.
"A doctor once told me I'm clinically weak, which isn't a condition, it's just sad," she said during an appearance on "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" on Monday, November 25. "Ted noticed that I was fatigued and yet was running circles around me - and he's 40 years older than me. I started trying to jog because of him, and the first time I tried, I almost died!"
Jamil explains she ran into a beehive hanging from a tree and then into traffic, trying to escape the bees.
"That is my natural instinct, to run into six lanes of traffic," she explains. "I run in, a car hits me. Yeah, I get knocked over by a car. I've just started filming 'The Good Place', by the way. But the car's, thankfully, slowing down because it sees a woman covered in a perm of bees, so they hit me while slowing down."
Jamil's nightmare ended as she ran towards a nearby bar.
She added, "There are people standing outside smoking, and I think to myself - and it's terrible when you're in a moment of emergency to realise what an awful person you are - but I looked at those people smoking and I was like, 'You already don't care about your lives, so I'm gonna run at you with these bees!'"
