Henry Winkler got a rude awakening all the way across the pond — getting rushed out of a hotel over a would-be fire … which sounds like a plot right out of “Happy Days.”
The Fonz was in Ireland this week — where he’s promoting his new memoir, ‘Being Henry’ — and on Wednesday … he found himself being shuffled out of a hotel in Dublin after a fire alarm went off, which required a pretty big response from firefighters.
Check out the photos … you can see a bunch of uniformed first responders rushing in and making sure everything was alright — and some of the firefighters even posed with HW!
Henry ended up doing an interview with local media afterward, and he gave a blow-by-blow account of what went down from his perspective. Funny enough, he says he thought the fire alarm was actually a wake-up call … that is, until a staffer was urgently telling him to book it.
He had some pretty kind words about the guys who ran in there — saying they’re real heroes, and deserve to have their hands shook whenever possible. Henry did that and then some.
In terms of the fire itself … turns out, there actually were some flames — which were flickering near a roof space above one of the upper-floor rooms … but in the end, nobody was hurt … and firefighters were able to contain the blaze.
Ayyyyyeeee … good news!
