Actor DANNY DE VITO will never forget his family vacation to Costa Rica earlier this year (07) - because he nearly drowned and then inadvertently flashed an entire beach.
The diminutive star was on the beach with his wife Rhea Perlman and children when he decided to go into the sea so he could urinate.
The 62-year-old recalls, "I go out (into the sea) and I look back at the shore and there's people setting up their blankets and stuff and a smile comes over my face and everything's good.
"And then I start to come in, and a wave comes at me, and then another wave comes from the back of me and I'm a strong swimmer but really struggling now. It's like what they call rip tide.
"I'm pushing as hard as I can and now my arms are starting to feel like (Sylvester Stallone's boxing character) Rocky Balboa in the last round. I'm getting churned like in a washing machine.
