Kevin Smith, aka, Silent Bob, made the shocking revelation that he underwent emergency heart surgery after experiencing a “massive heart attack,” according to The Clerks director.
Smith was scheduled to appear at an early and late show Sunday at Glendale, California’s Alex Theatre. In a follow-up Facebook post, Smith elaborated on the situation: “I was trying to do a killer standup special this evening but I might’ve gone too far.”
“After the first show this evening, I had a massive heart attack,” Smith tweeted. “The Doctor who saved my life told me I had 100% blockage of my LAD artery (aka ‘the Widow-Maker’). If I hadn’t canceled show 2 to go to the hospital, I would’ve died tonight. But for now, I’m still above ground!” source
“The point of this post is to tell you that I faced my greatest fear tonight… and it wasn’t as bad as I’ve always imagined it’d be,” the actor wrote. “I don’t want my life to end but if it ends, I can’t complain. It was such a gift.”
