A recent family vacation to Arizona’s Grand Canyon could have ended horribly, if it wasn’t for Matthew McConaughey’s quick thinking. McConaughey, his girlfriend Camila Alves, and their 10 month old son Levi were visiting the popular vacation spot when a wild ram began kicking up dust in their direction. So what did the proud papa do? He hid behind the bush with the baby in his arms, of course! Thinking back about the situation, the actor admits that his instincts now makes him laugh after realizing the animal was only trying to find a female ram to mate with.
Per StarPulse:
“I’m holding eyes with this ram getting up real steady…. I need something to get behind in case he charges. I ended up sneaking up behind this briar patch… I sat there for about a 15-second stand-off. Then he popped up over the other side of the cliff. Four lady rams were on the other side.” says McConaughey.
Hilarious, yes. But at least he showed that in any amount of danger, his son comes first. Now his female fans have all the more reason to swoon over him.
