PETE Doherty has revealed the shocking moment he was electrocuted which resulted in him being rushed to hospital.
The 43-year-old musician, who is best known for being the front-man in The Libertines, spoke about the scary incident.
It happened when he was a child during Christmas when as he bit into a wire.
"When I was a toddler I remembered I chewed through a wire from Christmas lights," he said.
"I kind of spontaneously combusted or something and I had to go to the hospital.
"When I came back I had a big white streak in my hair."
However, the singer revealed he was unlucky to receive another electric shock.
"Four years later I electrocuted myself under the fridge as well, but that was New Years I think," he said.
The star was speaking on Sky's Never Mind the Christmas Buzzcocks, a special festive episode of the panel show.
It's presented by Greg Davies along with team captains Noel Fielding and Daisy May Cooper.
