In what appears to be a cry for help, ET has obtained exclusive video of DAVID HASSELHOFF in Las Vegas — where he is currently starring in The Producers — in which he appears to be intoxicated in heartbreaking footage believed taken 3 months ago by his 17-year-old daughter, TAYLOR.

Taylor begs her father to stop drinking, saying “dad look what this is doing to you. You have to stop drinking alcohol, promise me you won’t drink anymore. They’re going to come tomorrow and test you and you’re going to lose your job.”

He appears intoxicated, lying on the floor, wearing only a pair of blue jeans while attempting to eat a hamburger.

David’s rep tells ET exclusively: “David told his daughters that if he ever fell off the wagon, they should tape him so that he’ll know what kind of condition he’s in and learn something from it.”

In a statement to ET through his attorneys, David said: “I am a recovering alcoholic. Despite that, I have been going through a painful divorce and I have recently been separated from my children due to my work. I have been successfully dealing with my issue. Unfortunately, I did have a brief relapse, but part of recovery is relapse. Because of my honest and positive relationship with my children, who were concerned for my well-being, there was a tape made when I had a relapse to show me what I was like. I have seen the tape. I have learned from it, and I am back on my game. I thank God for the love and concern from my children.”

Thanks to Wes at ET for the tip!!
