Kevin Hartlearned the hard way about downing too many espresso shots on the job.
Whilecontinuing to promotehis new movieJumanji: The Next Levelalongside costarDwayne “The Rock” Johnson, the 40-year-old actor began experiencing some discomfort after quickly drinking three cups of espresso during interviews.
As the interviews continued, Hart continued to struggle with keeping everything in.
“Do we know how strong the espressos are here? Are they jamming them with something?” Hart asks at one point, as Johnson teasingly replies, “Ex-Lax.”
Not one tolet Johnson have the last laugh, after being asked about impersonating his costar, Hart replied, “I been impersonating him because that’s where the gas comes from.”
Johnson went on to commend his costar for continuing on with the interviews, even though he wasn’t feeling his best, while also making a few more cracks about the situation.
“I had no idea how bad Kev’s stomach got after slamming three cups back to back – until I looked and saw him slumped over while we talked to journalists for our JUMANJI press junket,” hewrote. “Then the smell hit me.”
“Like the pro he is, he finished all our press. Then had to change his pants,” Johnson added. “This one will always be one of my all time favs.”

Hart and Johnson’s press tour comes 11 weeks after Hart’sterrifying September car crash, which led toemergency back surgery.
Opening up about his recovery experience last month, Hart shared a video on Instagram, which included footage from the hospital of theNight Schoolstar being helped to a walker.
“Basically, what you realize is that you’re not in control,” Hart said in the video. “No matter how much you think you’re in control, you’re not in control. At the end of the day, it can all be over, man.”
“After my accident, I see things differently. I see life from a whole new perspective. My appreciation for life is through the roof. I’m thankful for my family, my friends,” he added.
