Steve Carell Reveals That a Fan Hit Him With Her Car!

During a Wednesday appearance on Ellen, Steve Carell revealed that he was recently riding his bicycle and got hit by a car!

“It’s a weird experience because everything just slowed down. And I thought, ‘Well, I’m gonna tuck and roll,’ and I rolled. And I got up and I was fine,” he recalled. “And the woman who was driving the car jumped out. She was distraught, obviously. And I went over to her. And my bike was sort of stuck under the front of the car and she says, ‘Oh, my God! Oh, my God! Oh, my God! It’s Steve Carell!” He added, “And she was so excited that she hit me.” After Carell told the story, Ellen DeGeneres decided to give him a helmet and a vest covered in lights and reflectors. “No one is gonna hurt you now,” she told him.
