Harrison Ford

I don't want to have to hide the face of the character because it's a stunt guy.

I want them to feel the blow.

I want them to see the anxiety.

I want them to be there when the decision is made or when the decision is missed.

I just want them to be there.

And it takes me being there to bring them along, I think.

I suppose we won't be satisfied unless we talk about the airplane accident.

Well, I've got to face the music, don't I?

Let's just start by saying that it was a mechanical failure.

Yeah, it was a 74-year-old airplane, and I was 74 years old at the time.

It was a beautiful day, and I had just recovered from an earlier accident and had gone out with a bunch of guys on a mountain bike ride.

And I came home and sitting in the hot tub and I tried to talk my wife into going with me for a ride because it was such a beautiful day.

She demurred and I had a lunch with my daughter and asked her if she wanted to go and she said no.

So I went by myself and 400 feet in the air above the airport, the engine quit.

And it's my home airport and I was familiar with the

surrounding terrain, which is cluttered with houses, wires, and cars, and people.

So I turned to a golf course that was there.

And when I landed, my seatbelt pulled out of the place where it was secured.

And so I got a major blow on the head, which resulted in a

brain injury that was described to me that I didn't remember the moments because it was retrograde amnesia, a kind of protective device of the brain.
