I Nearly Died During The Making of Rocky IV - Sylvester Stallone

Sylvester Stallone nearly died during the making of Rocky IV.

The 75-year-old actor recalled how doctors feared that he would be 'talking to angels' after he was badly injured by Dolph Lundgren - who played Rocky's nemesis Ivan Drago in the 1985 film – when a fight scene went badly wrong.

Sly, who portrays Rocky Balboa in the sports drama series, had nuns praying for him in intensive care after Dolph 'pulverized' his heart with a punch.
