JACKMAN THRILLED BY GRANDMA'S HEART-STOPPING LETTER

Movie hunk HUGH JACKMAN felt sure he had been served a summons as he read a letter from an elderly fan who had been taken seriously ill after he carried her to her seat at a show.

Hugh Jackman at the Premiere of "The Prestige" held at the El Capitan Theater. Los Angeles, California - 17.10.06

The actor was starring in stage musical THE BOY FROM OZ in a stadium in his native Australia recently when he chose to escort an enthusiastic fan and her grandmother from the back row to the front during the show.

Jackman quickly realised this wasn't a good idea when the elderly woman grabbed a cane and shuffled towards him.

So, rather than halt the live show, the quick-thinking Aussie insisted the grandma jump on his back and he carried her to her new seat.

It was the highpoint of a great evening, but then Jackman's heart stopped when he received a letter from the elderly lady weeks later.

He explains, "She told me that that evening... she was administered (sic) into hospital and her heart stopped three times.

"I'm reading this letter... ready to turn and see a summons to court or something, and she just said, 'I don't want you to feel bad; I'm only telling you this because you're the first man in my life who has stopped my heart.'"
