Owen Wilson Tells Leno about Gnarly Surfing Accident
Actor and new father Owen Wilson appeared on "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno" on Tuesday and revealed he received 24 stitches to his head after a recent surfing accident in Hawaii.
"I took on a wave that was probably too big for me. I went off the back and the board kinda caught air and the board came back and hit me in the forehead and I got 24 stitches," Wilson said.
After telling Leno about his brother's encounter with a shark, Owen admitted he was fearful of getting attacked as he paddled back to shore, bleeding. "I was thinking about the shark as I was paddling back in with a little blood dripping into the same cove where my brother was attacked recently!"
