The near-death experience of Pedro Alonso and the illness suffered by Begoña Vargas

Pedro Alonso and Begoña Vargas are the protagonists of the prequel to the successful series La Casa de Papel, Berlin, which is based on the origins of Alonso's character. It is the actor's first time in El Hormiguero, although he has not hesitated to share with Pablo Motos all kinds of anecdotes about his tastes and hobbies beyond acting.

Like Vargas, it was not the first time he visited the program. The last time she witnessed a particularly comical moment when explaining to Motos the expressions most used by young people. This time he has been no less and has confessed his strangest abilities, such as his ability to predict the future.

Pedro Alonso has been very generous and has told anecdotes of all kinds, although the most shocking was when he told the moment when he almost died. At 12 years old “he had a basketball from the fair and there was a crack in the elevator shaft that didn't have a door,” he began to explain.

The actor has confessed that “he was a very curious child” and that is why it occurred to him to put the ball in the slot. “I saw the gap, I looked at the ball and I said if I put the ball through there…” As he did so he also put an arm in, just when someone called the elevator.

At that precise moment the elevator began to move and engulfed the actor's arms. Although, according to what he said, he was “lucky” because he stopped moving before it engulfed his head. As best he could, he stuck out his arm and at that moment “I began, without much credibility, to scream for help.”

At that moment, Pedro Alonso said that “the entire building left and my older brother went down the stairs to get to the elevator. He took my arm out with two holes in it. “I was about to hit it.” Luckily they took him to the hospital and everything was a scare.

In line with the health situation that the actor has told, Begoña Vargas wanted to give visibility to a disease that she herself suffers from and that "has little research." It is Atopic Dermatitis, which she has suffered from since she was 7 years old, although “I don't have it super serious.”

He has confessed that it has happened to him many times of “going to film with fat shoots and, as a public figure, in the end talking about it, there are surely people who suffer from it and who feel insecure.” Furthermore, she wanted to add that “although I am seeing a little movement, there is still very little.” For that reason she “wanted to talk about it so that those who suffer from it do not feel helpless.”
