Dawson’s Creek Stars James Van Der Beek, Kerr Smith Nearly Died on Jetskis

Who amongst us wasn’t wild sooner or later of their lives? I imply, I could still be considered wild by buddies my age and I’m practically 40. But it is all the time attention-grabbing to listen to of different folks’s wild tales, chief amongst them celebrities of our childhood.

Recently, Dawson’s Creek stars James Van Der Beek and Kerr Smith sat down with People’s Breanne Heldman at 90s Con to speak in regards to the filming of the well-known present, however the topic turned to how Van Der Beek, Smith, and the remainder of the crew used to boost hell on jetskis after filming was over. 

Smith advised People, “A couple of like a couple of the guys on the crew had boats and you know we had the guest stars come in and the writers come in every episode and we would take them out on the water on the weekends. We’d stop and eat crab in the morning yet. And we’d fill up the boats with whatever we needed. We would barbecue out on the island. We all had jetskis.” And on these jetskis, Smith added, “I’m surprised I didn’t actually kill myself!”

Van Der Beek then added that the world they filmed “used to get hurricanes every. What I’d do is I would book the first flight out the next morning and I would get on my jetski and would ride the hurricane waves. When you rode the back of the toward shore, the way the wave was going, it was an optical illusion because you couldn’t see the shoreline but you were convinced you were going up and up and up and up. By the time the wave broke. I was convinced I was, like, 200 feet in the air.”

Smith additionally advised People that “I remember one time, I hit a sandbar and I flew 100 feet over the handlebars and made some waves.” 

Clearly, the 2 have been fairly competent riders, although, as none of what they’re describing would enable for many novices to trip. But it is also humorous to listen to Dawson and Jack speaking about their stunt-filled after-hours exploits relatively than some equally melodramatic teen angst they have been portraying on the time on Dawson’s Creek.

Who knew they ripped so exhausting? Now we have to see some dope photographs of the pair ripping jetskis from again within the day. Come on, boys, give the folks what they need.
