Not everything was as it appeared on the TV series “Baywatch” — where actors clad in swimsuits saved lives on a California beach.
Sounds glamorous, right? Not so fast, actress Nicole Eggert told Fox News.
“The cold days you have — the bad always outweighs the good,” Eggert, 52, said about what she remembered most about “Baywatch.”
Eggert and her co-stars often shot scenes in frigid temperatures.
“So, it was like being on the beach is the most amazing job in the world,” Eggert said. “But the cold days, the freezing days, the days getting rained out and you have to be in the ocean — you’re going, ‘What did I sign up for? What did I do?’”
“You know, fighting hypothermia. Like just trying to find a dry towel anywhere,” she said. “Those were really hard moments.”
Eggert played lifeguard Summer Quinn from 1992 to 1994. The show, headed by David Hasselhoff, ran from 1989 to 2001.
The actress previously said she left Baywatch
