Actors Who Injured Their Co-Stars During Filming (4 of 6)

Joe Pesci literally bit Macaulay Culkin in Home Alone (1990)

Joe Pesci is terrifying when he wants to be, which is exactly why Home Alone works so well. As burglar Harry, he spent most of the movie slipping, falling, and getting tormented by Kevin McCallister’s traps, but one of the scariest moments happened off-screen.

During the scene where Harry threatens to bite off Kevin’s fingers, Pesci got a little too into character. In one take, he accidentally bit Macaulay Culkin’s finger hard enough to leave a scar that Culkin says he still has on his right index finger.

Stone Cold nearly broke Stallone’s neck in The Expendables (2010)

This time, Stallone’s opponent was wrestling legend “Stone Cold” Steve Austin. Their fight in the film is exactly what you’d expect: big, loud, and full of haymakers.

Stallone later revealed that the brawl was so intense that he ended up with a hairline fracture in his neck. He needed serious surgery afterward and now has a metal plate in there as a souvenir. So yes, you can think of it as Stone Cold basically giving Rocky a hardware upgrade.
