Sylvester Stallone Went To The Hospital After Asking His Co-Star To Actually Hit Him
Sylvester Stallone's name is synonymous with Rocky's as the franchise was very popular, grossing more than $1.7 billion at the worldwide box office. Part of its success can definitely be attributed to the actor's dedication to the character. He followed a very strict diet and exercising regime to maintain the fictional boxer's physique and one time, his striving to be as realistic as possible landed him in the hospital.
While filming Rocky IV, Stallone encouraged his co-star, Dolph Lundgren, to actually punch him with all his might. The actor explained that Lundgren's uppercut "caught the ribs and hit the heart against the ribcage." To recover from that, Stallone stayed at the hospital for nine days and didn't continue to receive real punches.
