Anderson Cooper Punched In The Head 10 Times In Egypt

Anderson Cooper was in the middle of chaos yesterday, as he tried to cover the revolution in Egypt! But no worries — Anderson is okay!

After Anderson decided to go and interview the pro-President Mubarek people, but things went south and he was attacked. The thugs hit the Silver Fox in the head ten times. Anderson claims that he and his team were trying to get to a spot in between the two sides of the protesters in Tahrir Square.

The mob didn’t want to be filmed, according to reports, so they started attacking the CNN people on the scene.

TMZ has more:

Anderson explained, “The instinct is try to punch back … but in a situation like that you really can’t because that just inflames the crowd all the more … so all we could do is just try to walk as quickly as possible, stay together and seek a safe location which is where we are now.”

Thank God he’s safe! But that’s what you have to expect when you go into an unsafe area.
