Thrill-seeking actor EWAN MCGREGOR was left trembling in fear after he wa s taken for a white-knuckle ride in a Tornado fighter jet.
The Trainspotting star got the chance to experience a G-force inducing flight when his brother Colin - a pilot for Britain’s Royal Air Force - o ffered him a trip in a hi-tech military plane.
But McGregor admits he was terrified as they hurtled through the clouds - and ended up vomiting in a sick bag.
He tells Britain’s Mail on Sunday Live magazine, "We went barrelling do wn the runway and I was in the seat directly behind him, and because you can’t see what’s coming you can’t prepare for the G-force. You’re wearing a G-suit that inflates and pushes on your body, and it pushes the blood back. Without it you’d just pass out, as the G-force is unbelievable. It’ s horrible.
"I was a little sick, but not too much. We did a lot of low-level stuff and then he went up to 2,000 feet, over the clouds, and I started to swe at and I was thinking, ‘Conquer it, conquer it!’ "I managed to be all right, but then he asked me to change the frequenc y on the radio, and as I put my head down he veered off. I couldn’t get m y head back up, and it’s horrible when you can’t see. I instantly threw u p. When you land, you’ve got your little bag of sick on your lap, and the canopy comes up and the ground-crew fella comes up the ladder and he say s, ‘OK?’ And you have to hand him the bag."
