Actor Sam Neill revealed that his son, Tim Neil, once passed a ton of gas during the 1993 premiere of the original “Jurassic Park” while sitting next to the late Princess Diana.
Must go faster … away from Sam Neill’s kid.
The 1993 premiere of “Jurassic Park” was a memorable one for Neill — and not just because Princess Diana attended. The actor revealed that his son, Tim, couldn’t stop farting as he sat next to the People’s Princess.
“There was a royal premiere in London, and it was … sort of a fortuitous occasion — you don’t get to sit beside Princess Diana every day,” Neill, 76, told the hosts on “Today” while promoting his new series “Apples Never Fall.”
“But my son was sitting on the other side [of me] and it was kind of unfortunate,” the New Zealand actor stated. “Because once it starts getting exciting, about 45 minutes in, he was so carried away with things — he was about 10 years old at this point — he started to fart unreasonably.”
While the “Peaky Blinders” actor assured that the gas wasn’t loud, there were other more noticeable aspects.
“It wasn’t that audible, but it was very, very [smelly],” he continued. “And there was sort of a draft through the cinema, and it was all drifting in the princess’ direction.
