Elite Facts Presents 8 Film Stunts GONE WRONG
8.
The Lord of the Rings Trilogy - Viggo Stunts Okay starting the list with something more
on the lighter side.
Viggo Mortensen is generally known as that badass dad from The Road, but he started in
a much different place.
While performing his breakthrough role as Aragorn in the Lord of the Rings Trilogy,
Viggo was referred to as 'the walking wounded' by the film's director.
He performed all of his own stunts and frequently suffered injury while doing so; he even knocked
out one of his teeth during one scene.
The tooth was repaired during the crew's lunch break and Viggo promptly returned to
work afterward.
You've got to respect his commitment to the film's production.

Gothika So who here watching the video remembers Gothika?
You know, the one about Halle Berry waking up in a mental institution because she's
a psychiatrist convinced a ghost tried to kill her?
No?
Okay we don't know it either.
We just know about it because we were doing research for this video.
At least Halle Berry did most of her own fights and stunts, something which cost her a broken
arm.
After one of her more "physically demanding" scenes got a little too physical, Berry was
rushed to the hospital with a broken ulna.
Her injury delayed filming, which was halfway done at the time of her accident, but was
completed and released in the end of 2003.

The Expendables 3 - Jason Statham's Stunt Now if it was anyone else doing this stunt,
This stunt would have ended in death.
On the set of the 3rd Expendables film, Jason Statham almost died because the stunt truck
he was testing out malfunctioned.
Obviously this is why they were testing it out to see if there were any issues with the
truck itself..
As you likely know, the Crank actor does a lot of his own stunts, so it is no surprise
that he has gotten himself into a predicament or two.
While a lot of the stunts-gone-wrong might not be life-threatening, it sounds like this
one was pretty close.
Thankfully, Jason knew just what to do and he saved himself.
Luckily before testing out the vehicle, the doors were taken off for aesthetic purposes,
Allowing Statham a quick escape from the vehicle as the vehicle plunged 60 feet down into the
Black Sea and became impaled on rock waiting below.
Luckily Jason Statham is an olympic class swimmer and diver.
If it was anyone else, it would have ended badly.
Guaranteed!

Top Gun Top Gun is an 80's classic, an action-romance
film about a handsome young pilot attending Naval School where he must prove himself among
a crowd of rowdy and judgmental students.
Action packed and all about airplanes, this movie called for a number of risky air stunts.
A professional air stuntman named Art Scholl was hired to perform many of the in-flight
camera work for Top Gun.
Scholl was incredibly talented and experienced, and had done aerial filming for commercials,
television and film like The Right Stuff and The A-Team.
Top Gun would prove to be the last film he worked on.
During a maneuver called a flat spin, Scholl was unable to recover the airplane to its
regular position for reasons that still remain unknown.
"I have a problem," he said, "I have a real problem," before crashing into the
Pacific Ocean.
Neither Scholl nor his airplane were ever recovered.

Resident Evil The Final Chapter - Amputated Arm and Hummer Death
It's pretty safe to say that the entire production of Resident Evil The Final Chapter
has been cursed from start to finish!
2 separate accidents occurred on set with one ending in a severe, career threatening
injury and one resulting in a crew member's death.
The first of which was when renowned stunt actress Olivia Jackson who is well known for
her stunt work in Star Wars The Force Awakens and Mad Max Fury Road suffered a traumatic
injury while filming a scene that included her riding on her motorcycle.
During this scene, She collided with one of the camera cranes, resulting in her going
into a medically induced coma for 2 weeks and have her arm amputated which essentially
forced her into retirement.
Besides the amputation, Jackson's other injuries include cerebral trauma, a crushed
face, a severed artery in her neck, a paralyzed arm, several broken ribs, a shattered scapula,
a broken clavicle, torn fingers with a thumb that needed to be amputated, and five nerves
torn out of her spinal cord.
This wasn't the end of the production's bad luck however as a crew member by the name
of Ricardo Cornelius was crushed under the weight of a hummer that was intended for a
chase scene in the film.
3.
The Crow - Brandon Lee's Final Performance We all know of this one.
Although some may argue that it's not a stunt, Anything involving active fire arms
is a risk so we're counting it on this list.
It's a sad thing to hear when you know that he died on set of what would be a legendary
film, much like his father.
As the scene was being filmed, Brandon Lee was killed after Michael Massee fired the
gun at Lee as intended.
The bullet was unseated from a dummy round that was lodged in the barrel of the prop
handgun.
The bullet was not noticed and the gun was loaded with a blank cartridge.
When the blank was fired, the bullet shot out and hit Lee in the abdomen.
Lee soon after died on set.
2.
Semi Pro - Bear Mauled Trainer to Death Will Ferrell is known for his side-splitting
comedies, which often contain ridiculous and hilarious imagery.
Semi-Pro was no different, and one scene called for a giant grizzly bear for wrestle with
the star himself.
Bears can be trained to do all sorts of things, like ride bikes and even hang out in a hot
tub with humans without mauling them to death.
In fact, they can appear to be quite friendly after years of training by a skilled professional.
However, even if animals have been trained, animals are still wild and unpredictable no
matter how well behaved they've been taught to act.
The 5 year old bear named Dewie in Semi-Pro upheld this theory when it lashed out in a
shocking and unwarranted rage.
Fortunately for Ferrel, his scene was completed without incident.
The bear's trainer, Randy Miller, was not so lucky.
While in the company of three trainers, the 7 foot tall grizzly bear tore into the neck
of Miller with its massive jaws.
Miller's coworkers made a vain attempt to pry the animal's mouth from its death grip,
but Miller died on the spot from blood loss.
When you really think about it, Was it honestly worth the trouble of having an actual bear
on set for a Will Ferrell comedy film?

The Expendables - Stallone Breaks neck Sylvester Stallone is without a doubt one
of the most iconic action film stars of our time.
That being said, He's going on 70 and although he was 64 during the filming of this, there
is going to have to be a time where he has to slow down with all of the physical work
he does in these films.
For example In the first Expendables films HE BROKE HIS NECK!
That's right, Stallone broke his neck on the set of the expendables while he was filming
a fight scene during the film's climax.
In this fight, Sylvester Stallone takes part in hand to hand combat with Stone Cold Steve
Austin…….Yeah there's no way this was going to end well.
