"Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason" star Paul Nicholls says he is lucky to be alive after smashing his leg following a fall from a Thai jungle waterfall.

The actor, who was trapped for three days, was discovered by locals in a rock pool at the Khun Si Falls on the island of Koh Samui, Thailand, reported Guardian online.

"I am lucky to be alive. I had a phone with me but I fell from such a height into the water it was unretrievable. It took such a long time to find me. It's an understatement to say it wasn't a great situation. It wasn't that I was lost," he says.
 

"The problem was I couldn't move to get out of there. I've got a broken leg and I'm missing a kneecap. It needs complete reconstruction.
