[CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] DOING OKAY?
YOU ALL RIGHT? DOING OKAY?
HEY, EVERYBODY PURGES TALKING TO MY BODY.
WELCOME BACK. LADIES AND GENTLEMEN,
YOU KNOW MY FIRST GUEST FROM FILMS SUCH AS
"THE LORD OF THE RINGS," "PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN,"
AND "GRAN TURISMO." YOU CAN NOW SEEM HIM IN THE
LIMITED DOCUSERIES, "ORLANDO BLOOM: TO THE EDGE."
♪ ♪
>> HARD, HARD, HARD, HARD, HARD, [BLEEP].
>> Stephen: PLEASE WELCOME TO "THE LATE SHOW,"
ORLANDO BLOOM. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]
♪ ♪ NO, NO, NO.
THANK YOU. >> Orlando: TOGETHER.
ONE, TWO, THREE. >> Stephen: FIRST OF ALL,
LOVELY TO SEE YOU. >> Orlando: YOU TOO.
>> Stephen: I LIKE THE CHOCOLATE.
>> Orlando: I LIKED IT TOO. THAT'S WHY I CHOSE IT.
>> Stephen: WE JUST SAW THIS CLIP.
YOUR SHOW MAKES ME NERVOUS. I'VE SEEN SOME OTHER LITTLE
CLIPS OF THINGS YOU'VE DONE AND THEY MAKE ME NERVOUS TOO.
WE'LL TALK ABOUT THOSE IN THE SECOND.
WHAT ARE ALL THE DANGEROUS PURSUITS YOU'RE DOING?
>> Orlando: IN THE SHOW. WEIGHING-SUITING.
THAT'S WHAT THAT WAS. >> Stephen: YOU LOOKED LIKE A
FLYING SQUIRREL. >> Orlando: THE SECOND EPISODE
IS DIVE IN MY FREE DOVE TO 37 METERS IN ONE BREATH.
THE THIRD EPISODE WAS CLIMBING. I CLIMBED IN MOAB, A PINNACLE.
I STOOD ON THE TOP. IT WAS LIKE A LIGHTNING ROD I
FELT. I WAS LIKE "OH."
>> Stephen: I HAVE SEEN CLIPS OF ALL OF THEM.
THEY ALL MAKE ME NERVOUS. WHICH ONCE CURED YOU THE MOST?
>> Orlando: ALL OF THEM INDIVIDUALLY AND INDEPENDENTLY
IN THEIR OWN SPECIAL PARTICULAR MESSED UP WAY.
IT'S TOTALLY UNNATURAL TO JUMP OUT OF PLANE AND SKYDIVE BUT
ONCE YOU LEARN THAT, YOU GO THIS IS FINE.
WING-SUITING, IT'S LIKE A KNIFE EDGE.
THINGS CAN GO SOUTH VERY, VERY QUICKLY.
>> Stephen: YOU ARE GOING SOUTH VERY QUICKLY.
>> Orlando: ACTUALLY -- BUT FREE DIVING IS TERRIFYING
BECAUSE EMOTIONALLY AND MENTALLY YOU'RE KIND OF LIKE, YOU'RE
GOING DOWN AND THE CLAUSTROPHOBIA OF WHAT IT FEELS
LIKE AND THEN FOR ME I WAS LIKE, HOW DO I COME BACK UP HOLDING
BREATH? >> Stephen: THIS IS THAT
EPISODE. COMING UP.
HOW FAR DOWN DID YOU SAY YOU WENT?
>> Orlando: I THINK I GOT TO 102 FEET.
37 METERS. >> Stephen: YOU HAVE TO BE AN
EXPERIENCED SCUBA DIVER TO GO DOWN TO 100.
DIVES ARE NORMALLY AROUND 60 OR 50 FEET.
HOW LONG DOWN AND HOW LONG UP? >> Orlando: I WAS PROBABLY
ABOUT TWO AND A HALF MINUTES UNDERWATER.
>> Stephen: OKAY. >> Orlando: IT'S PRETTY WILD.
I ALSO HAD ABOUT A FIVE DAY WINDOW TO DO IT.
>> Stephen: WHAT DO YOU MEAN? YOU HAD TO LEARN THE WHOLE THING
IN FIVE DAYS? >> Orlando: I WAS IN THE WATER
DOING THAT IN A FIVE DAY WINDOW BUT WHEN I HAD DONE PRIOR TO
THAT WAS THESE BREATH EXERCISES LEARN TO HOLD MY BREATH FOR A
LONG PERIOD OF TIME SO I COULD GET COMFORTABLE WITH THAT.
THE THING I FOUND MOST CHALLENGING ABOUT DIVING, FREE
DIVING, I WAS WEARING A MASK AND EQUALIZING.
I HAD A LOT OF CHALLENGES WITH EQUALIZING WHICH IS TYPICALLY
SOMETHING THAT CAN BE AN ISSUE. >> Stephen: I HAVE A QUICK
FOLLOW-UP QUESTION. THAT IS, WHY?
[LAUGHTER] ORLANDO BLOOM.
WHY? WHY WOULD YOU DO THIS?
WHY IS THIS THE THING THAT YOU'RE DOING FOR OUR AMUSEMENT?
YOU'RE PUTTING YOURSELF IN DANGER SO WE GET OUR JOLLIES OUT
OF IT. WHERE DID THIS COME FROM?
HAVE YOU ALWAYS BEEN LIKE AN ADRENALINE JUNKIE?
>> Orlando: PROBABLY LITTLE BIT FOR SURE.
I THINK KOBE WAS A CHALLENGING TIME FOR EVERYONE.
I HATE TO BRING UP THE C WORD. I WAS PRETTY AWARE AND I FELT
THE FEAR AROUND ME AT THE TIME, WHAT AM I GOING TO DO WHEN I
COME OUT OF THIS AND WHAT I WANTED TO DO SOMETHING THAT
SHOWED LONGEVITY IN LIFE AND HOW TO LIVE REALLY CLEAN LIVING LIFE
SO YOU CAN LIVE LONGER THEY WERE LIKE, YOU CAN GET ANY
ADVICE ON THAT FROM ANY STUDIO. >> Stephen: WHAT IF WE DROPPED
YOU OUT OF A PLANE. >> Orlando: THROW YOU TO THE
BOTTOM OF THE OCEAN. SEE IF YOU CAN CLIMB THIS.
>> Stephen: HOW ABOUT SOMETHING WITH YOUR SHIRT OFF,
ORLANDO? HOW ABOUT THAT?
WHAT IF WE DO THAT? [CHEERING]
>> Orlando: LET'S DO IT. SO THERE WAS A UNIQUE TIME AND I
THINK SO MANY PEOPLE ON THE PLANET, I WAS LIKE, WHAT AM I
GOING TO DO? >> Stephen: SOMETHING
OUTDOORS, ENERGETIC. >> Orlando: OVERCOMING FEAR.
WHAT DOES THAT LOOK LIKE? FOR OTHER PEOPLE IT WAS LIKE,
GOING TO GET THROUGH THIS DAY? >> Stephen: YOU'RE LIKE, LET'S
DIVE TO THE BOTTOM OF THE OCEAN. NO COVID DOWN THERE.
WE HAVE TO TAKE A BREAK. PLEASE DON'T GO.
YOU DON'T GO BECAUSE WE'LL BE RIGHT BACK WITH MORE
ORLANDO BLOOM. STICK AROUND.
