Al Pacino was nearly kidnapped by a ‘crazy’ female fan after a night of drinking

Al Pacino almost had to jump out of a moving vehicle after being kidnapped by a “crazy” fan at the beginning of his career.

In his newly released memoir, “Sonny Boy,” the legendary actor, 84, revealed he found himself in the scary situation after going out for drinks with Gene Hackman’s brother, Richard Hackman, one night.

However, the two had a little bit too much fun and Pacino “got so drunk” that he couldn’t “find [his] way home” — until a random woman offered to give him a ride.

“A woman said to me, ‘Oh, I’ll drive you home.’ And without a second thought, I got into her car with her,” he recalled, per People.

“But as we drove, even in my daze, I could recognize that she was not taking me back to where I was staying,” he continued. “I said to her, ‘What is going on here?’ And she said straight out, ‘I’m kidnapping you.'”

Pacino explained he was already “well-known” by that time, having already made “The Godfather.” He also dismissed arguments the woman might’ve been just kidding around, insisting her behavior “was not” just “some aggressive flirtation.”

“I am from the South Bronx. When I see some crazy person trying to do something to me, I know how to escape,” he wrote. “I said, ‘No, you’re not. I’m getting out.’ She said, ‘No, no,’ and she kept driving.”

By that point, Pacino was willing to do whatever it took to get away.

“I opened the door as if to jump out of the car,” Pacino recalled. “I was a little drunk, but I was ready to leap from a moving car if I had to. This ain’t happening to me, man.”

Thankfully, after seeing the actor was willing to risk his life, the woman agreed to take him home.

Elsewhere in the book, the Oscar winner opened up about going broke, his complicated relationship history and his formative years living in New York.

“I seemed to cheat death on a regular basis,” he said of his childhood. “I was like a cat with many more than nine lives. I had more mishaps and accidents than I can count.”

During one eye-brow-raising section, the movie star revealed a childhood accident that still “haunted” him to this day.

“I was walking on a thin, iron fence, doing my tightrope dance,” the “Scarface” star, who was 10 at the time, wrote.

“It had been raining all morning, and sure enough, I slipped and fell, and the iron bar hit me directly between my legs.”

Pacino said he was “in such pain” that he couldn’t walk home. Eventually, an older gentleman saw him “groaning in the street” and carried him back to his aunt’s house.

“I lay there on the bed, with my pants completely down around my ankles as the three women in my life — my mother, my aunt, and my grandmother — poked and prodded at my penis in a semipanic,” Pacino recalled.

“I thought, God, please take me now, as I heard them whispering things to one another as they conducted their inspection,” he joked.

Although his penis “remained attached,” so did “the trauma.”

“To this day I’m haunted by the thought of it,” he wrote.
