George Clooney Health problem: Back pain
http://www.prevention.com/health/health-concerns/7-celebrities-who-manage-life-chronic-pain/george-clooney
The actor who is as famous for his anti-genocide activism (and his love life) as his movie roles suffered a debilitating back injury while filming the 2005 thriller Syriana. Hitting his head on the floor during an intensely violent scene, he tore the dura—the wrap around the spine that holds in spinal fluid—and told reporters that, prior to a number of corrective surgeries, the pain was so bad that he thought "ending it all" seemed like a viable option. Despite undergoing surgery to reinforce his spine with bolts, Clooney says the injury has never completely healed, forcing the 50-year-old star to drop out of filmmaker Steven Soderbergh’s version of the 1960s spy series The Man from U.N.C.L.E. According to Eonline.com, "He said he just can’t do the action and stunt scenes," revealed an U.N.C.L.E. source who’s familiar with the actor’s health situation. "In fact, I think he’s planning on having another operation during the time he would have been filming." |
