But I do remember being convinced that I wasn't going to live.”

Clooney was filming ‘Catch-22’ in Sardinia, Italy, when he was involved in a motorcycle crash at 70 miles per hour. He told The Hollywood Reporter: "It split my helmet in half, it knocked me out of my shoes. I was hit hard. I was just waiting for the switch to turn off because I broke his windshield with my head, and I thought, 'Okay, well, that's my neck. If you get nine lives, I got all of them used up at once - so I can let go of motorcycle riding for a while.”

The comic actress was involved in a nasty accident while surfing in her high school years. She told Vanity Fair: "I skegged myself. My whole fin went into my leg, and I had to yank it out.” One person came to help her and “he held my leg closed with his bare hands—just fat and blood coming out. I wish I knew who that guy was, because he saved my life, for sure."

The ‘Star Wars’ actor has had several near-death experiences, including a helicopter crash in 1999. In 2015, he was flying a plane that crashed onto a golf course near the Santa Monica Airport.

He wrote in his biography: "Behind me, I can sense death: a burning airplane that contains the bodies of two pilots and two good friends. Less than a minute from now, it will explode.”
