Would have been a darn shame. That is one fine actor.


NEW YORK -- Tony Danza got quite a scare when he and NASCAR star Rusty Wallace were racing go-karts during the taping of a segment for the nationally syndicated "The Tony Danza Show."

In this image from TV, Tony Danza's go-kart is shown flipping over during the "DayTony 500."

Danza was leading as they entered the final lap Monday morning on West 66th Street, the show said. After Wallace gave Danza's vehicle a little "bump and run," the 54-year-old talk-show host lost control of his go-kart, which flipped over.

"Although slightly worse for wear, Danza escaped with no injuries," the show said in a statement.

Wallace, who rushed to Danza's side after the crash, said, "I thought I killed ya," to which Danza responded, "Yeah ... just before you retire, 'I killed Tony Danza.'"

"I know you're tough, but that [was] ridiculous, man!" Wallace was quoted as saying.

The "DayTony 500" segment aired on Monday's show.

I watched the program... and it wasn't nearly as bad as they said it was.

Tony was laughing after he turned over and Wallace didn't run to his rescue saying that he thought he killed him... what he did was ask Tony Danza if he rolled on purpose or did he plan that...

I saw the clip this morning and it looked like Wallace just causally walked over and was smiling.

But I also think that once he saw the video of the accident he realized how serious it looked because he was talking on ESPN this morning and you could tell he was worried about it, but not until after he seen the video.
