George: Lucky And Scared

George Clooney says escaping serious injury in a motorcycle crash was “scary” and “lucky”.

The actor - and his other half Sarah Larson – were wearing helmets so got away with minor injuries after being sideswiped in New Jersey a few days ago.

At the premiere of his new movie Michael Clayton in New York he told People magazine: "I feel pretty lucky we got out of it."

"It's scary. We never really saw it coming."

The smash caused friend and sex appeal rival Brad Pitt to send George a message.

According to George it read: "How bad?"

George replied: "Not so bad."
