In this YouTube video, you can see the actor telling the story:
In retrospect, Stallone could tell from the video footage that an uppercut was the blow that caused severe damage since it “hit the ribs and struck the heart against the chest wall”.
“The next thing I know, I’m on a plane flying to the emergency room and lying in intensive care for four days. And there are all these nuns.” The actor spent a total of nine days in the hospital due to the injury.
The doctors told Stallone that the injury usually occurs in frontal collisions during car accidents. To which the actor replied, “Almost. I kind of got hit by a bus.”
Neither Rocky nor Rambo is the most successful film with Sylvester Stallone. Here with our colleagues at Filmstarts, you can read about what the absolute hit in the actor’s career was.
Lundgren also commented on the incident in an interview, joking that he was just following Stallone’s orders:
“He was the boss. I did what he told me. We came back to L.A. and the producer said: ‘Hey Dolph, you have two weeks off – Sly is in the hospital.'”

Also, an actor from the live-action adaptation One Piece gave it his all for his role, as he mentioned in an interview:
During the filming of Rocky 4, Sylvester Stallone wanted his co-star Dolph Lundgren to hit him for real. However, he underestimated the actor’s strength and ended up in the hospital.
In the boxing film Rocky IV – The Fight of the Century, Rocky, played by Sylvester Stallone, faces the tough competitor Ivan Drago ( Dolph Lundgren) in the ring, and they deliver a spectacular boxing match.
However, Sylvester Stallone had to take a beating during the filming of the scenes and spent several days in the hospital.
Here you can see the trailer for the fourth Rocky movie:
“Just go out there and try to hit me”
When the two actors were filming the boxing scene, Stallone told Lundgren not to follow any choreography and just hit hard. “Just go out there and try to hit me,” was the instruction.
So Lundgren gave it his all and delivered a solid punch to Stallone’s chest. At first, the lead actor felt completely normal. But after several hours, Stallone noticed something was wrong.
