AceShowbiz - Comedian Kevin Hart almost died while celebrating his ninth birthday after discovering he was seriously allergic to crabmeat.
The "Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle" star was treated to a fancy dinner by his mother, but the skin outbreak he suffered was enough to scar him for life - and he hasn't touched any seafood since.
"I broke out in hives eating Alaskan crab!" he recalled on U.S. breakfast show "Today".
"I was with my mum, I was celebrating my birthday and I almost died, true story! No more seafood; I'm allergic to seafood."
