Will more ‘fearful’ now

WILL Smith thinks he’s got “more fearful” as he’s got older. The 51-year-old actor has been trying to “recover” the more carefree attitude he held in his 20s, and would like to connect with his younger self to discover where his “courage” came from, even though he admitted he was a bit of a “dumbass” in those days.

Asked what he’d ask his younger self, he said: “Will in his twenties wasn’t listening to nothing that nobody had to say, so I wouldn’t tell his dumbass nothing.

“But there were certain qualities that I had in my twenties that I have been trying to recover in the last couple of years.

“So my birthday last year, I did bungee jumping out of a helicopter over the Grand Canyon.”
