characters on TV and motion pictures nearly bite the dust when they are performing and doing stunts, and when you consider it, that truly does not merit being a major star now is it? It doesn't generally make a difference a ton how well known you are whether you wind up kicking the bucket on set now, isn't that right? Discuss something that individuals may lament. I would envision a great deal of these renowned on-screen characters reconsidered before accomplishing something hazardous on camera once more.
Here are 15 stars that did stunts they regret, but not as much as they could have. Some of them almost died!
1. Gilligan Was Almost Attacked By A Lion
Is there anyone that doesn’t remember Gilligan? Even those of you who are kind of young probably remember the show Gilligan’s Island in which Gilligan was always getting into some kind of trouble. One time, Gilligan, who was played by the actor Bob Denver, almost was attacked by a lion on set, but before the lion could get to him, its trainer tackled it in mid-air.
This is obviously a good thing because if you ever looked at Gilligan’s physique, there is no doubt he would have been able to take on a lion and survive. That dude was really skinny, and you know being killed by a lion probably wouldn’t have done a lot for the ratings of the show down the line.
2. Sylvester Stallone Was In Intensive Care
When Sylvester Stallone starred in Rocky IV, he wanted things to look as realistic as they could, so he told his costar Dolph Lundgren to punch him as hard as he could. This was not the most brilliant idea as Lundgren is enormous and powerful. He hit Stallone so hard, he had to go to intensive care in the hospital and stayed there for over a week. I’m not sure, but I can imagine that Stallone never told anyone “punch me as hard as you can” ever again after that, and I am pretty positive he never did it again with Dolph Lundgren. We get it Sly, you’re tough as nails, you don’t have to prove it by having people put you in the hospital. Especially when they are as big as Dolph Lundgren.
3 Jackie Chan Dislocated His Pelvis
Jackie Chan is known for doing his own stunts in his movies and there wasn’t much that he isn’t willing to try, and as an amazing athlete, he has done most of his stunts without a hitch. This was not so true when he starred in Police Story. He cracked his seventh and eighth vertebrae and dislocated his pelvis when he attempted to jump off a roof and grab a pole that he was supposed to slide down.
One might think that this would have caused him to be more careful in the future, but he continued to do his own stunts, although at this point, he is older and doesn’t do a whole lot of movies anymore. I mean come on, he is Jackie Chan, after all, he isn’t scared of doing his own stunts!
4. Halle Barry Couldn’t Catch Her Breath
Halle Barry has long been thought of as one of the most beautiful actresses in the world, which is one of the reasons she was cast in the James Bond flick Die Another Day. We all know that only the hottest women get to be Bond girls, although Halle is certainly not just a pretty face, she is a good actress too. At one point, she was involved in a steamy scene with Pierce Brosnan that involved them feeding each other fruit. Well, Halle started choking on the fruit and Brosnan had to give her the Heimlich maneuver to save her. I would imagine that probably killed the romance pretty quickly. There isn’t much that ends a romantic evening quicker than someone almost choking to death.
5. Charlize Theron Fell On Her Neck
This one is really scary. When Charlize Theron was starring in the movie Æon Flux she had a really bad fall, to the point that the movie had to stop filming for 8 weeks and doctors were not even sure if she would ever have full mobility again. Sometimes, it might seem that these stars are not in any danger when they are filming big-budget movies, but the thing is, that is just not true. Everyone working on a movie, even the professionals that make their living designing stunts and making sure they go okay are just human beings after all, and all it takes is one little mistake and some of these stars could lose their lives. Just ask Charlize if you don’t believe me, she knows!
