Speaking on Kelly Ripa's podcast, he said he experienced 'a complete loss of control, a 100% feeling of, 'I am not in control'' (via toofab)
Noting the experience as"a hell of a scare," McConaughey recalled feeling,"A complete loss of control, a 100% feeling of, 'I am not in control.' I have no way to get control of this situation at the moment."
The"Interstellar" star revealed he wasn't wearing a seatbelt at the time and claimed there was no warning light letting passengers know to buckle up for incoming turbulence. "My tray table is what held me down. I did not have my seatbelt on, and there was not a seatbelt warning right before it happened," he continued. After the incident, McConaughey said he"immediately reached over, made sure Camila had her seatbelt on."
"[We] held hands just saying, 'OK, is that it? Is there another one coming?' Another one did come. It was odd. You hear people's reactions. Some people were ghost silent. Some people had big bursts of laughter. And it was not like, 'Oh, this is fun.' It was like, 'I'm in shock,'" the"Dallas Buyers Club" star recalled.
