Russell Crowe Discloses Decade-Old Leg Fractures from 'Robin Hood' Stunt

The actor continued filming despite severe injuries, only discovering the fractures years later during a routine doctor's visit.

Russell Crowe revealed he fractured both legs while filming a stunt for 2010's 'Robin Hood', but didn't realize the extent of his injuries until a decade later.
Despite the severe injuries, Crowe never took a day off, never discussed the injury with production, and received no medical treatment at the time.
The actor discovered the fractures during a doctor's visit for unrelated leg pains, where remnants of the fractures were found in his shin bones.
Crowe attributes the healing of his legs to the intense physical training he underwent for his role in 2013's 'Man of Steel'.
This is not the first time Crowe has sustained injuries on set; he has previously suffered from a disintegrating hip, torn labrum tissue, and no cartilage in his toes due to stunts.
