Celebrities Who Seriously Almost Died In Completely Insane Accidents

Celebs can seem immune to the everyday problems us “normals” deal with. Because they seem to have it all. But it’ll shock you to learn some of Hollywood’s most famous faces had brushes with death. And these close calls have happened both on and off the set.

Johnny Depp

When Johnny Depp was filming the 2011 movie “The Rum Diaries,” a small plane he was piloting with director Bruce Robinson suddenly malfunctioned. “Oh, shit! This is death; I guess this is how it goes down,” Depp remarked when describing the near-crash.

Thankfully, the engines eventually restarted.

Did you think Isla Fisher’s acting was incredible during the “tank” scene in the movie “Now You See Me”? If so, that’s because Fisher wasn’t acting. She truly almost drowned after one of her chains got stuck and prevented her from swimming to safety.

George Clooney

George Clooney suffered a serious, near-fatal head injury during filming for “Syriana.” Following the trauma to his head, it was discovered that Clooney’s spine was slowly leaking fluid. The actor alleges that the pain was so intense, he contemplated taking his own life.

Gerard Way

Former My Chemical Romance frontman Gerard Way revealed to Rolling Stone in a 2007 interview how getting held up at gunpoint changed his life forever. “I got held up with a .357 magnum, had a gun pointed to my head and put on the floor, execution style. I always have faith,” he said.
