Funnyman Steve Coogan loves to put himself in embarrassing situations onscreen - because he has learned not to take himself too seriously.
The Tropic Thunder star admits he has a high tolerance for humiliation after realising he will never be a "cool" actor.
He says, "I got over the wanting-to-be-cool thing a long time ago, and found it quite liberating. Once you stop worrying about how you might be perceived - even in character - it's strangely freeing.
"So I've actually gravitated towards doing things that are uncomfortable and embarrassing, and I enjoy it."
