Chris Tucker Nearly Died While Shooting Video for “California Love”

On Thursday’s Late Late Show, Chris Tucker recalled a near death experience on the set of legendary rapper Tupac Shakur’s video for “California Love”, the first single from Tupac’s multi-platinum album All Eyez On Me. The video, from director F. Gary Gray—director of last year’s hit him Straight Outta Compton—was a Mad Max inspired joyride, and while shooting, Tucker narrowly escaped disaster.
