Pamela Anderson has learned that serving as an illusionist’s assistant is a risky business after a recent show with pal Hans Klok left her burned and injured.

The actress/model has just returned from Berlin, Germany, where she performed with Klok, which left her more than a little bumped and bruised.

She says, “I got scorched and I think I may have thrown a rib out. “There’s one trick… where the spikes go through the box and it got really close and I ended up going backstage and going, ‘Woo, that was close.’”

Anderson spent much of 2007 playing assistant to Klok in Las Vegas.
