Herzog Shot During Interview

By WENN|Friday, February 03, 2006

HOLLYWOOD - German director Werner Herzog was shot by a crazed fan during a recent interview with the BBC.
The 63-year-old was chatting with movie journalist Mark Kermode about his documentary Grizzly Man, when a sniper opened fire with an air rifle.

Kermode explains, "I thought a firecracker had gone off.

"Herzog, as if it was the most normal thing in the world, said, 'Oh, someone is shooting at us. We must go.'

"He had a bruise the size of a snooker ball, with a hole in. He just carried on with the interview while bleeding quietly in his boxer shorts."

An unrepentant Herzog insisted, "It was not a significant bullet. I am not afraid."

That sounds like typical herzog alright.

Busy week for the motherfucker.

You all do know he just rescued Jauquin Phoenix from a car crash right?

I heard during the filming of Grizzly Man he repeatedly passified angry bears by cock-slapping them silly

also, the title of the movie doesn't really have anything to do with with actual bears, if you catch my drift
