This question will probably last 3 seconds, but....

Name 5 injuries/accidents sustained by actors during the filming of the Lord of the Rings Movies. (well, the answer won't have to do with numbers, anyway....)

1. Sean Astin stepped on a piece of glass.

2. Viggo Mortensen lost some teeth.

3. Viggo Mortensen almost drowned.

I'll have to think of two more. If someone else gets five before me, give it to them.

Didn't Viggo "Mr Bump" Mortensen also break his toe or something kicking the orc helmet outside Fangorn? As I recall, they kept his anguished cry in.

Um......

*Viggo Mortensen lost some teeth.

*One of the Ringwraiths fell off his horse.


Wasn't thinking at all of these two. When did they happen?

Yep, that's another Mr. Saucepan, though the way I remember it the cry wasn't kept in at all, but percieved as anguish over Merry and Pippin. Either way, it works.

That's what I meant. They kept the cry in because it served admirably as a cry of anguish for Merry and Pippin.

I'm out of Middle-earth movie mishaps.

If this is still going then the last one would be Orlando Bloom falling off his horse, having the Gimli puppet thing land on him and so breaking his ribs.

The Eye About Post #513...

I think I read somewhere that Viggo lost some teeth after he jumped on that one Orc at Amon Hen. He insisted that the teeth be glued back in, and the shoot go on.

It also says in "The Making of the Movie Trilogy" that on the first day of the Ringwraiths chasing Arwen scene, one of the Wraiths fell of his horse.

I still can't think of another one.

Hm. I'm thinking of someone else that I understand lost a tooth, and about an incident in Rivendell.

True to my usual line of things, both "owies" had to do with Sean Astin.

Hello! I apologize for leaving you folks in the lurch. I get lost in this place since they changed the format.

Any way, according to what I've read (both in a magazine, and here), aside from stepping on the glass, Mr. Astin also:
  • Had an 80-pound statue or some such fall on his head while in Rivendell, knocking him unconcious. The lump that began to grow on his head actually started lifting his wig off.
  • During a swordfight, he had a tooth knocked out and requested that his tooth be glued back in so that they could finish the scene.

The last one I learned here in another quiz game. Elijah Wood said "He's incredible" and began to describe the incident. I remember wondering why "Sam" didn't just pack up and go home at that point.

Anyway, by my count, unless you folks would like to decide otherwise, Orcrist has given the most answers, so it's his go.
