\nSylvester Stallone, the iconic actor known for his portrayal of Rocky Balboa, has recently shared a shocking revelation about the filming of \u201cRocky IV.\u201d In a documentary available on his YouTube account, Stallone disclosed that he was seriously injured during a pivotal scene in the movie.\n
During a fight scene with Dolph Lundgren, who played the formidable Soviet boxer Ivan Drago, Stallone received a powerful blow to the chest.\n
\n
Reflecting on the incident, Stallone described the impact as being similar to the force of being thrown against a steering wheel after a car accident. The injury left him in significant discomfort, though he initially didn\u2019t realize the extent of the damage.\n
In the documentary, Stallone recounted his experience, stating, \u201cHe pulverized me. I started feeling some discomfort in my chest later that night, though I didn\u2019t notice it at the time.\u201d\n
The injury proved to be more serious than initially thought. Stallone\u2019s blood pressure skyrocketed to a staggering 260, leading to concerns for his well-being.\n
\n
As a result, Stallone was urgently transported from Canada to St. John\u2019s Hospital in Santa Monica, California, where he spent four days in the intensive care unit.\n
Recalling his time in the hospital, Stallone shared a lighthearted anecdote, saying, \u201cI\u2019m in the intensive care unit, and the only other people here are nuns.\u201d Despite the seriousness of the situation, Stallone\u2019s determination didn\u2019t waver. He emphasised, \u201cI was then forced to return to the arena and complete the battle.\u201d\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
