Adam Thomas had a loaded gun put to his head by a group of lads.
The Emmerdale actor, 38, has told of the horrifying incident he experienced on a double decker bus when he was a teenager.
Speaking on his At Home With The Thomas Bros podcast alongside his siblings Scott and Ryan Thomas, he said: "I got a gun pulled to my head on a bus.
"It was when I was like, how old was I? About 15, 14. And I was sat at the back of the bus on a double decker."
Waterloo Road star Adam had assumed the weapon was "pretend" only until afterwards when the lads showed him the bullets, and he was left terrified by the ordeal.
He added: "This group of lads got on and they basically pulled out a gun and put it to my head and I thought it was like a pretend gun.
"Then they took the like revolver out and showed me all the bullets and I just s*** myself."
Adam - who has son Teddy, 11, and daughter Elsie-Rose, eight, with his wife Caroline Thomas - also had a tough time during the recent I'm A Celebrity...South Africa series, despite winning the show.
The series was marked by tensions, including disputes between Adam and former footballer Jimmy Bullard, and ex-pro boxer David Haye.
Adam later slammed those who tried to "dim [his] light" after his win on the controversial season.
He wrote on Instagram: "I walked through this journey with my heart first, no matter what came my way...It was not always easy, there were moments that could have broken me, but I stayed true to myself and that is something I will always be proud of.
"I have realised that when people try to dim your light, it says more about them than it ever will about you.
"This experience has shown me my strength in ways I never imagined. Not because of any title or recognition, but because I stayed kind, I stayed grounded and I stayed real."
