An old 2009 clip has resurfaced of Pennsylvania Senate candidate and reality show personality Mehmet Oz telling host Jimmy Kimmel an anecdote about trying to stab his sister in the head with a needle. During an appearance on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” in October 2009 , Oz recounted how he, as a child, was “fascinated” by needles and used to find needles in his physician father’s desk.
He said he would use the needles to poke holes in oranges to extract the juice. “And one day I noticed my sister’s head had little pores in it too. And I still remember, I swear, watching her head from behind,” Oz told Kimmel, miming how he crept up behind his sister with the needle.
“I threw it in there, and it didn’t go in. The skull got in the way. I got no brain — I got nothing back,” Oz said.
“Wow. I have to say, you might be one of the craziest people we’ve ever had on the show,” Kimmel said in response to Oz’s anecdote. It’s unclear which of Oz’s sisters the senate candidate was referring to in the old Kimmel clip.
