Inside One Of Hollywood's Longest Celebrity Feuds

As indestructible as Sylvester Stallone and Arnold Schwarzenegger may seem on the big screen, in real life, they're mere mortals who need to visit the doctor just like everybody else. Over the years, both Sly and Arnie have had their share of injuries and ailments. 

For example, while making "Rocky IV," Stallone was put in the ICU for days after his co-star, Dolph Lundgren, punched him during a fight scene. Among his other injuries, Stallone has damaged his shoulders, rotator cuff, knees, and has gotten stitches on his hand and under his arm. He also suffered a hairline fracture in his neck during the making of "The Expendables." Meanwhile, Schwarzenegger has had his share of bodily damage, including a hip replacement, rotator cuff surgery, and broken bones. Schwarzenegger has also dealt with some major heart issues. He underwent a pulmonary valve replacement in 1997, had update on that surgery in 2018, and had an aortic valve replacement in 2020.

Perhaps it was inevitable, then, that Arnie and Sly would find themselves getting surgery at the same time. In 2012, in a strange twist of fate, both men were in the same hospital at the same time, and both were going under the knife for shoulder surgery. Unbeknownst to either of them, their surgeries were scheduled back-to-back. For an added surprise, sources cited by Yahoo! News claimed that Sly waited his turn until Arnie woke up from his operation. Just another casual meet-up for these action stars.
