London, Nov 12 - Actor George Clooney considered killing himself six years ago, after he injured himself while shooting a film.

The 50-year-old injured himself while filming spy thriller "Syriana"in 2005, and he was so racked with pain as a result of the spinal condition that he thought about ending his life, reports femalefirst. co. uk.

"I started to think, 'I may have to do something drastic about this'.I was in a hospital bed unable to move, having these headaches where it feels like you're having a stroke," Clooney told Rolling Stone magazine.

"You don't want to leave a mess, so go in the garage, go in the car, start the engine. I was in a place where I was trying to figure out how to survive," he added. (IANS)
