We have got to get him to the hospital,’ because if he dies in my house, I’m going to prison for the rest of my life.”

Jimmy Kimmel saved Matt Damon from almost dying at the late-night host’s house. Kimmel revealed that Damon was once having dinner at his home, when he choked on a pork rib that Kimmel cooked. Kimmel said the piece of meat was stuck in Damon’s throat for an hour and a half.

Kimmel and Damon became friends after Kimmel pretended to have a feud with the actor as a joke for Jimmy Kimmel Live! in 2005. The fake feud started when Kimmel jokingly said, “Apologies to Matt Damon, but we ran out of time,” during a season 3 episode of the show, despite the fact that the actor was not slated as a guest.
