The Kung Fu Panda star revealed that he was fortunate to survive his "reckless" behaviour.
He said: "I'm lucky to be alive - I don't think I was completely sane. They should have put me in jail. Plus, I was doing coke and sniffing glue, I stole from my mum.
"It was a bad time, but most teens have reckless spells."
Black recently admitted that he tries to hide his bad movies by not promoting them properly.
