A crew member accidentally poured boiling water onto Channing, burning his skin off where the sun don't shine, for lack of a better term.

"I had five guys looking at my shriveled, burned penis.” But luckily he recovered just fine. "I'm good... now. My penis is fantastic! One hundred percent recovered. Put me back in the game, coach.”

While filming the scene in Titanic when her giant coat gets caught on the gate and she is submerged in the water, Kate said: “I had to sort of shimmy out of the coat to get free,” adding “I had no breath left. I thought I’d burst. And [director James Cameron] just said, ‘Okay, let’s go again.’ That was his attitude. I didn’t want to be a wimp so I didn’t complain.”

It turns out Joey wearing a sling wasn't just apart of the storyline. He actually dislocated his shoulder while filming the episode "The One Where No One's Ready."

"Chandler and I are fighting over the big down chair. I'm downstage at the table, and he comes in the door, we both look at each other, look at the chair, and neither one of us is sitting in it, so we both race to the chair, and I have to just step over the coffee table and land in this big, huge, comfortable chair. I don't even think it qualifies as a stunt. And somehow, I ended up completely upside down and I was gonna land on my head between the table and the chair, so I put my arm up to break my fall, and just exploded my shoulder," he said.
