Channing Tatum recounts Mexico mishap while promoting new thriller

Holidays, exotic locations, high temperatures, and the omnipresent relaxation do not favour attentiveness to experts' warnings. Sometimes, one careless sip is enough to ruin the entire trip. A day spent on the toilet? It happens even to Hollywood stars!

Channing Tatum shared his troublesome adventure in a recent interview. Together with Zoë Kravitz, they are currently promoting the film in which he stars and she directs. "Blink Twice" is a psychological thriller often compared to the famous "Get Out!". The film is enjoying decent reviews on Rotten Tomatoes. The promotional campaign for the title continues. Tatum and Kravitz, who are a couple thanks to this film, grew closer while on its set. They now appeared together in a clip for the popular Buzzfeed service.

- Remember we had that party, Chan, and you and Simon were both wrestling in the pool? and then you guys swallowed pool water but we are in Mexico, and you were puking - said Zoë.

- For 12 hours. I couldn’t leave the bathroom. The doctor had to come and give me a shot to make it all okay. - replied Tatum, recalling the unpleasant event.

Why did the actor get sick? Drinking water contaminated with bacteria can lead to severe symptoms such as vomiting, diarrhoea, and fever.

For example, tourists in Egypt or Mexico are warned against drinking tap water, which is very popular and safe in our country. Meanwhile, even ice cubes in drinks made from contaminated water can be dangerous. Pool water and shower water can also be hazardous.

In the film "Magic Mike," Channing Tatum played the titular character, a man trying to fulfil his dreams of owning a business while earning a living as a stripper. "Step Up" is the film that catapulted Tatum to fame. He played Tyler Gage, a young rebel with a talent for dancing who must work hard to achieve his dreams. In the comedy "21 Jump Street," Channing Tatum appeared alongside Jonah Hill as Jenko, a policeman who returns to high school to break up a drug ring. In the film "Foxcatcher," Tatum portrayed the American wrestler Mark Schultz. The role showcased the actor's dramatic skills, earning him critical acclaim. In "G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra," Tatum played Captain Duke Hauser. Based on the G.I. Joe toy line, the film gained popularity, although the actor recalls the role with some disdain. In the movie "Dear John," based on the novel by Nicholas Sparks, Channing Tatum portrays the soldier John Tyree, who falls in love with a young woman (Amanda Seyfried). In Quentin Tarantino's film "The Hateful Eight," Tatum played a more minor but significant role than Joe Gage. He appeared during critical moments of the plot, which surprised the audience.
