(BANG) - Ashton Kutcher has confessed he hates water - despite playing a lifeguard in his new film.
Ashton - who battled giant waves in adrenaline-fuelled thriller 'The Guardian' - says he hates being in water so much he doesn't even like taking a bath.
He is quoted by Britain's Sunday Express newspaper as saying: "I don't like water and being in it. As a kid growing up I learned to swim but it wasn't real swimming - it was doggy paddling."
The 28-year-old - who is married to actress Demi Moore, 44 - says spending up to nine hours a day in water, while shooting the film, was the most gruelling experience of his life.
He said: "You get unbelievably cold and it's the hardest thing I've done. When I started swimming in the ocean, I was throwing up constantly but I made myself keep going. Every time I threw up, I'd go back in and swim more."
The 'Butterfly Effect' actor now feels confident enough to use his life-saving skills in real life.
He said: "I am a very determined guy - my family knows that. And they were really proud that I got through this and can now rescue anyone who is in trouble in water."
