Jamie Dornan encountered a toxic caterpillar that hospitalized him and his friends

Jamie Dornan had a terrifying and unexpected encounter in Portugal last year.

Gordon Smart, a Scottish broadcaster, spoke on the BBC program The good, the bad and the unexpectedabout the incident that occurred when he, Jamie and their friends from Northern Ireland went on a golf trip.

Gordon explained that after a night of drinking wine and espresso martinis, he began to feel “a tingling in his left hand and a tingling in his left arm,” which he assumed was “usually the sign of the onset of a heart attack.”

He was taken to a local hospital and his heart rate was 210 BPM. Before getting there, he collapsed in an Uber, woke up in a hospital bed and explained to a doctor how much alcohol he had consumed the night before.

“While I was lying there, one of the other guys I was with passed by in a hospital bed and the doctors were shouting the same questions at him. And I thought, ‘That’s not a good sign that he’s in the same state as me.'”

After leaving the hospital and returning home, the announcer soon realized that his friend was still there.

“There [Dornan] I was with all these things taped to this chair and I was saying, ‘Gordon, about 20 minutes after you left, my left arm went numb, my left leg went numb, my right leg went numb. And I found myself in the back of an ambulance.’”

Gordon said he received a “phone call from the doctor” a week after his golf trip asking if the group had come into contact with caterpillars on the golf course, before sending him a local news story about processionary caterpillars.

Pine processionary caterpillars have thousands of tiny hairs that contain a “stinging or irritating protein called thaumetopoei,” which can cause skin rashes, pain in the skin, eyes and throat, and, in rarer cases, allergic reactions. Moths, however, are “harmless” to both people and animals, according to Forest Research.

“It turns out that there are caterpillars on golf courses in southern Portugal that kill people’s dogs and give 40-year-old men heart attacks. It turns out that we brushed processionary caterpillars and we were very lucky to get out of that one alive,” he revealed.

“So there’s my story. The good news is that it wasn’t a caffeine overdose or a hangover. “It was a poisonous and toxic caterpillar.”

Jamie also revealed a stalker situation that occurred due to Fifty Shades of Grey.
