- Home Improvement made Tim Allen a successful actor
- People couldn't get enough of seeing him in their family time
- Unfortunately, in 1978 the actor got into trouble
Tim Allen is one of Hollywood's most loved actors. His big breakthrough came with the series Home Improvement. In it, he embodied the role of the likable "Tim Taylor". After the series ended, Tim was also seen in numerous films.
The star has a very dark past
But hardly anyone knows that the "Santa Clause" star has a dark and terrible past. In 1978, the actor was arrested at the Kalamazoo airport in Michigan for drug trafficking.
Allen had 650 grams of cocaine on him at the time, which is why he faced a life sentence. Tim pleaded guilty, however, and cooperated by giving prosecutors the names of other drug dealers.
For this, the Hollywood star received a prison sentence of seven years instead of life imprisonment. In the end, Tim was released after 28 months.
