We might have been victims ourselves. It made me feel ashamed of belonging to these overpowering, technically superior countries fighting against what seemed to me defenceless people. I felt I was on the wrong side ... that it would be better for humanity if the Communist system prevailed, that it would put an end to war.

BREAKING: Oh no she didn't: Tanya Roberts' Partner Explains Why He Thought She Had Died

Apparently her husband/BF/whatever thought she'd died, but she'd just gone to sleep. He left the hospital, and told her agent, who issued a press release… and the next day the hospital phoned the husband and explained that no, she was still alive
