Kurt Russell has had encounters with some of America's most notorious individuals.

Kate and Oliver Hudson remembered their stepdad being in a "dangerous situation" due to a "scenario" he found himself in.

Oliver, 47, revealed on "Jimmy Kimmel Live" that he frequently encounters killers, including serial killers, in some way. Kate chuckled at his statement.

He mentioned the 1994 police chase when O.J. Simpson drove into his house, which was being recorded on camera.

The 'How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days' star chimed in and agreed, 'This is actually a crazy story.' He was in the driveway, visible on KTLA, like, 'Huh?' My dad. I was like, 'What is he doing there?'

Simpson's home was located down the street from where Kate, 44, and her family were watching the NBA Finals at a friend's house.

"Kurt suddenly left the 405 freeway and drove to O.J.'s house. She didn't understand why he did it, but she followed him out of curiosity. When they arrived at O.J.'s house, Kurt got out of the car and went inside with his friend."

At the time of the Simpson car chase, the actress saw Kurt on TV behind caution tape while watching the news.

On June 17, 1994, two days after the brutal murders of his ex-wife Nicole Brown Simpson and her friend, Ron Goldman, O.J. Simpson led police on a 90-minute-long pursuit that ended in his arrest at his home in Brentwood, California.

"The interview didn't end there," Oliver stated.

"Ted Bundy attacked him, and he brutally assaulted Tex Watson, who was Charlie Manson's trusted associate."

I might not believe either of these stories, but I'm into them because they're interesting.

Oliver remarked, "This is a bizarre tale. Kurt was camping, he had his meal, went to get a drink, and returned to find his food missing."

"Ted Bundy escapes and later gets caught. He recounts how he survived and says he found a guy camping in the woods with his friends. He leaves the thing and goes to grab and eat his food."

Kurt Hawn and his wife Goldie Hawn are parents to son Wyatt and also helped raise Hawn's daughter Kate and son Oliver from her previous marriage to actor Bill Hudson. Additionally, Russell Crowe shares son Boston with his ex-wife Season Hubley.
