dancing with the stars who left last night, and now, you'reon "dancing with the stars." was that something you hadin the back of your mind? - no, not in the backof my mind. dancing?no.
they asked if i was interestedin doing it, and i've never thoughtabout dancing, but i always push people to step outof their comfort zones, and that was-- this is definitelyout of my comfort zone, so i thought,"well, i guess i'll do it." and they agreed that i didn'thave to stay in la. we go back and forthto alabama to rehearse there,
and i get to see my kidsand also be on the show. - wow, that's amazing.how are you-- like, is it, like, harderthan you imagined? is it--- it is definitely harder. i mean, all the rehearsingwe do, everything-- all the prepfor the show, any injuries that i've sufferedjust in the racing and the competitions i've done,you know, comes up. my wrist, ankle,things like that,
and then getting--she has kicked me in the face. - i know. we'll get to that.- one time. just one time.- actually-- [audience exclaims] but--and a toothcame out, right? both: yes. - so this is--there's your tooth, and your tooth is gone.
- oh, so bad.- the entire thing-- - the poor guy'sbeen through enough. why kick him in the face?- i know. i know, it was--- i listen better now. - see, it worked, right?- wow. - it was definitelymy most mortifying moment on "dancing with the stars." - i was gonna say,that had to be-- what is the hardest thingtraining with noah?
- it's--working with noahis really interesting. every danceis so different, so i have to find very new waysfor him to do things. usually the man leadswith the left arm, so i have to-- - why is that? - i guess that's just the waywe've always done it. we've never thoughtto challenge ourselves to flip it to the other sideand do things the other way.
- yeah, i mean, there areso many balancing things that are so impressive to methat you're doing. i mean, the strengththat you have when you're lifting her,and, like-- and she's on your thigh. it's really incredible.it's really impressive. - noah has amazingcore strength, and the minute i realizedhow strong he was, i was like,"okay, he's my jungle gym.
"it's time to figure out some fun thingsto do this season." you're gonna dancefor us, right? - yes, we are.- all right, let's do it. [flowing pop music] [woman singing] - oh, oh, yeah we're a thousand milesfrom comfort we have traveledland and sea
but as long as youare with me there's no placei'd rather be with every step we take kyoto to the bay strolling so casually if you gave mea chance i would take it it's a shotin the dark but i'll make it
know with all of your heart,you can't shake me when i am with you,there's no place i'd rather be
