David Hasselhoff said Baywatch’s Michael Newman “saved my life at least four times” while filming the TV series as he paid a moving tribute to his co-star following his death aged 68.
Newman played himself as a lifeguard and was the third most regular actor on Baywatch after Hasselhoff, who played Mitch Buchannon, and Jeremy Jackson, who starred as Hasselhoff’s on-screen son Hobie Buchannon.
