Former wrestler Hulk Hogan has admitted that he considered taking his own life following the breakdown of his marriage and the cancellation of his reality TV show.
The 60-year-old, real name Terry Bollea, has revealed that he "hit rock bottom" when Hogan Knows Best was taken off the air.
"After the show I kinda hit rock bottom," Hogan told Oprah Winfrey Network show Where Are They Now?. "Everything got dark, everything happened at once. I was drinking alcohol very heavily.
"It just all kept piling up, it all kept mounting and mounting I didn't know how to handle it. I always wondered how could someone possibly take their own life, and so I got to that point where I said, 'you know what, maybe this would be easy. You know, maybe this would be an easy way to fix things.'"
Hogan's ex-partner Linda filed for divorce in 2007.
