LOS ANGELES — HGTV star Ty Pennington is reflecting on, as well as poking fun at, his near-death experience that occurred nearly two years ago.
Pennington, who stars in the upcoming movie “No Address,” told Fox News Digital that the life-threatening incident was one of his “best experiences.”
“You find out who loves you because people message you, and you’re like, ‘My God, it’s like you died.’ And people finally message you and say, ‘My God, I forgot how much I love you.’ So it was one of the best experiences because you realize how much you’re worth to other people and how much you would be missed,” Pennington said.

He continued, “Honestly, I think we should all go through something like that so you really appreciate the people that love you, because sometimes we take that for granted. And I think that’s also what a home is like, is you forget how important that is to our lives. And when it’s gone, you know, sometimes we all take that for granted.”
“No Address” is set to hit theaters on Feb. 28.
