Better Call Saul’s Bob Odenkirk Recalls Medic’s Words After His Heart Attack
It’s been almost three years since actor Bob Odenkirk had his heart attack on the set of Better Call Saul. The Emmy-winning actor made a full recovery, it scared his family and fans worldwide, but also someone else: the on-set medic.
The star collapsed on the set of Better Call Saul in New Mexico on July 28, 2021, and was rushed to the hospital. Days later, he described the incident as a “small heart attack.” Odenkirk recalled what happened in a recent interview with the Multiple Talking Women podcast, saying the medic froze after he slumped down and his heart was beginning to fail.
“It was his first day,” Odenkirk said (via EW). “And he said, ‘Oh no.'”
