In real-life, Fodé likes to take risks, too. He shared on social media going bungee jumping a few years ago with some pals. “Bucket list. BUNGEE FLIPPIN JUMPING,” the actor posted, “@loganpaul @heybigmike & @jarod.nickerson jumped from the bridge to nowhere 2 years ago. And to date it’s one of my favorite memories of all time.

“I’m chomping at the bit for the next big adrenaline rush,” he continues. “To check another item off the bucket list. Life is short. We’re gonna die. That’s been relevant with friends, family and myself the last few years. I refuse to live a life of ‘I could do that if I wanted’ rather a life of ‘I did that’. No excuses. Share epic memories with the people you care about.

“Oh and if you’re wondering why I have on daisy dukes [shorts],” the actor offers, “it’s because my cheeks 🍑 looked hella cute in them while I did a triple backflip off the bridge. Watch my Vlog.”

Pierson Fodé played the role of Ridge (Thorsten Kaye) and Taylor’s (Hunter Tylo) son from 2015-18. He earned two Daytime Emmy nominations for Outstanding Younger Leading Actor for his work on the show. Since exiting daytime, he’s worked regularly guesting on such series as Dynasty, Supergirl, and Hit the Floor.

Currently, he’s in pre-production for The Man from Toronto, which stars big names Kaley Cuoco (The Big Bang Theory), Woody Harrelson (Cheers), and comedian Kevin Hart. The film’s logline reads: “The world’s deadliest assassin and New York’s biggest screw-up are mistaken for each other at an Airbnb rental.” The Bold and the Beautiful airs weekdays on CBS.
