Regardless of whether you’re a famous actor like Tom Cruise or Channing Tatum, Murphy’s Law applies to everyone. So, the next time you find yourself twisting an ankle or experiencing an unfortunate incident, remember that even these film stars endure serious injuries while leading the glamorous Hollywood life of movie-making. From sprained ankles to unexpected and unusual incidents like scorched p*nises, there are numerous unfortunate mishaps that can occur on a movie set.
The exorbitant costs of film production can be attributed to several factors. In addition to paying the cast, crew, producers, and directors, significant expenses arise from acquiring equipment, providing catering services, arranging stunt work, and obtaining extensive insurance coverage.
Channing Tatum Experienced Something Horrible While Filming
During the preparations for a scene in the film, The Eagle, where Channing Tatum and other actors were supposed to immerse themselves in a freezing cold river, an unfortunate incident occurred. A crew member mistakenly poured boiling water into Tatum’s wardrobe, causing severe burns to the tip of his p*nis. Typically, in such scenes, river water mixed with boiling water is used to keep actors warm, but this accident led to a distressing and unexpected injury for Tatum.
As they rushed to the hospital, Tatum conveyed to the driver, an ex-special forces Marine, that he might need to be knocked out because he was unsure if he could endure the pain. He requested the driver to find something and hit him on the back of his head to help alleviate the agony.
“You might have to knock me out because I don’t know if I can take the pain. Just grab something and hit me on the back of my head,” he said. “I had five guys looking at my shriveled, burned penis.” But Tatum recovered just fine. “I’m good… now. My penis is fantastic! One hundred percent recovered. Put me back in the game, coach.”
According to him, the incident proved to be the most excruciating experience he had ever encountered, and the accompanying embarrassment added to the distressing ordeal.
Channing Tatum Was Paid Peanuts For His “Big Break“
Channing Tatum’s journey to stardom was marked by securing several lead roles in blockbuster movies, quickly propelling him to become one of the most beloved actors of all time. However, this widespread acclaim did not come without effort. Before attaining his current position, the White House Down star had to endure a series of challenging and less glamorous roles and salaries as he worked his way to the top.
According to reports, Channing Tatum’s breakthrough moment in Hollywood came when he featured in a cameo role during one of the main sequences of Ricky Martin’s hit song She Bangs in 2000. In the music video, the talented actor can be spotted showcasing his dance moves as a bartender at an underwater bar located on a picturesque beach, discovered by Martin.
