Dax Shepard's friend nearly dies hanging Christmas lights
26 Nov
Summary
- Couple quoted $17,000 for holiday decorations, hired friend instead.
- Friend fell from the roof but was saved by safety ropes.
- The near-fatal incident occurred while decorating their Nashville home.
Kristen Bell and Dax Shepard shared a dramatic tale of holiday decorating gone awry on Jimmy Kimmel Live. The couple initially balked at a $17,000 quote to decorate their Nashville home. Instead, they hired Dax's best friend, offering him $3,000 for the job, a fraction of the professional cost.
Dax expressed concern for his friend's safety, especially since the friend hadn't been on a roof in nearly two decades. Despite his worries, the friend agreed to undertake the task, bringing safety ropes as a precaution. During the decoration process, the friend did fall from the roof.
Fortunately, the safety ropes he brought along caught him just before he went over the edge, a moment captured by a contractor present. The house is now adorned with elaborate decorations, which the couple joked might never be taken down due to the effort involved.
