George Clooney in Syriana
Although it wasn't highly publicized at the time, George Clooney nearly lost his life on the set of Syriana. The actor was badly injured in a stunt gone wrong—he broke his back, and the injury was so painful that he considered suicide.
"I was at a point where I thought, 'I can't exist like this. I can't actually live,'" he told Huffington Post. "I was lying in a hospital bed with an IV in my arm, unable to move, having these headaches where it feels like you're having a stroke, and for a short three-week period, I started to think, 'I may have to do something drastic about this.'"
