“I’ve got a few fears, spiders being one of them, but the worst is my claustrophobia. I’m mortally afraid of crowds. I panic! It was one of the most terrifying things and most uncomfortable: 15 bearded Irishmen crushing you,” said Kit in the interview. “There was a moment where he could’ve just lay down and let go of the hell he’s in, and sleep, like drowning, but it cuts to the heart of Jon, that he fights his way up to the top,” he added.
