For Justin Theroux, living "happily ever after" almost happened for just a week after he tied the knot to Jennifer Aniston back in August. The Hollywood actor revealed that he cheated death during the couple's honeymoon to Bora Bora when a diving excursion almost turned deadly for him.

According to Xpose on Friday, The Leftovers star says that he almost died on his honeymoon during an unfortunate mishap and language barrier. He says that he had a hard time telling his diving instructor that his oxygen tank was low while he was swimming with a group of friends and enjoying "the pretty fish" and coral surrounding them.

Theroux said, "He just kept swimming away from me. I got to my friend [and said], 'Dude, look.' And he said, 'Oh my God, you are about to die.'''

After a second attempt though, Aniston's husband realized that he had to act fast.

He added, "He pulls the emergency respirator out, puts it in my mouth, hits this clear button, which sends all these bubbles out, and it sends water down my throat. So now I'm also linked to this jerk because now I have to swim alongside him and finally he rolls his eyes and we go up. I'm just looking at this guy through my mask [thinking], 'I'm going to murder this guy.' I was going to throw the biggest haymaker!'"

Aniston and Theroux tied the knot in a secret ceremony back in August in front of their closest family and friends at their Beverly Hills estate. This is the first marriage for Theroux and the second for Aniston, who was previously married to actor Brad Pitt.
