Paul Gascoigne’s close call

OHMYGOSSIP — Paul Gascoigne nearly fell out of a helicopter during his stint on ‘L’Isola dei Famosi’.
The footballer needed to be flown out to have his shoulder looked at after injuring it on the Italian version of ‘I’m A Celebrity … Get Me Out Of Here’ but he nearly needed much more treatment as the helicopter door flung open during the flight, and he wasn’t wearing his seatbelt.
He said: “I’m scared of flying at the best of times and always say a little prayer before take off. But I was chatting to the pilot as we were taking off so I must have forgotten my seat belt. We are over the sea when he pulls to the right and the door flies open and I lurch towards it. I’ve never been so frightened. My career and family flashed in front of my eyes – but I managed to hold on and slide the door closed. I told the pilot what happened and we just exchanged glances as if to say, ‘F****** hell, that was close’. I thought if I fell out into the sea I might survive the drop but I was scared there might be sharks. I could see the headlines. Fat bloke who was good at football falls out of a helicopter and is eaten by a shark.”
And Paul – who had to quit the show due to injury – recalled the day he left, when he had helped his campmates win a spaghetti and meatball meal, only to not be able to eat it himself.
Speaking to The Sun newspaper, he added: “I managed to whack it back in as it’s happened a few times but the medics said I had to go to hospital. So we jumped in the helicopter and took off. I remember looking down at the campmates all tucking into spaghetti and meatballs and thinking, ‘You b*******, I helped win that. I’m starving hungry and I’m not going to get anything.'”
