Action star Sylvester Stallone is revealing the toll his dedication to his craft has taken on his body in the new season of his reality show, “The Family Stallone.”
During filming of “The Expendables,” Stallone suffered a neck fracture while filming a fight scene with wrestler-turned-actor “Stone Cold” Steve Austin. This injury required multiple surgeries, including the insertion of a metal plate in his neck and spinal fusions.
Stallone acknowledges his regrets, stating, “I did stupid stuff… I never recovered from Expendables 1. After that film, it was never physically the same.” He advises others, “don’t do your own stunts.”
