JOHN CORBETT - CORBETT FAILED COP EXAMS

CORBETT FAILED COP EXAMS

Actor JOHN CORBETT loved playing a Los Angeles cop in his new action film STREET KINGS - because he once spent a year training to become an L.A. County Deputy Sheriff. The Sex And The City star reveals he spent much of 1982 with top police recruits working out for the force - but he failed to make it as an officer. He recalls, "I was working in a steel factory as a boiler maker but my dad tried to become a Deputy Sheriff and he didn't make it, so I tried. "Every three months you go in for agility tests and if you pass that you move onto interviews and oral exams. Ultimately I didn't make it, I wasn't Deputy Sheriff material."
