Rocker Roger Daltrey realised he was risking his life for a TV show when he found himself running from a charging bison.

THE WHO star is the host of American outdoors TV show EXTREME HISTORY, and he suspected he'd taken too much on, studying ancient hunting practices, when he found himself running for his life.

He reveals, "We did a buffalo hunt with real Sioux Indians. That was hairy. They could've very easily killed us. We didn't kill anything, just startled them a little bit.

"They startled us though, when one big buffalo bull in particular stuck his head in the prairie and came up with half the prairie on his horns and then started pawing the ground.

"When an Indian tells you that's not a good sign and we better start backing up you think, 'Oh s***.'

"Here he is dressed like he can run like the wind in moccasins and I'm in cowboy boots with this stupid wolf skin over my head."
