NEW YORK (AP) â€” Actor Chris O'Donnell may dangle above a 2,000-foot drop in the action-adventure film ``Vertical Limit,'' but he prefers less extreme sports off screen.

``I'm not much of a daredevil,'' he said in the New York Daily News' Sunday editions. ``I'd much rather be playing a round of golf.''

``As I was holding on to the mountain, I would definitely say my prayers,'' he said.

The 30-year-old actor said daily helicopter rides up New Zealand's Mount Cook to shoot the film were more than enough excitement.

``I'd look out and see the snow being whipped around, and the helicopter would start to teeter. It was pretty hairy,'' he said.

O'Donnell's second child, Christopher Jr., was born last month, a year after his wife Caroline gave birth to daughter Lily.
