A dangerous stunt
Statham had another close call in 2014 when filming The Expendables 3. During one of the scenarios, the actor was driving a truck when the brakes abruptly failed. The vehicle continued, finally driving directly into the sea, with Statham behind the wheel! Statham, fortunately, was able to flee the sinking truck and swim to shore. He was unharmed, but the truck sank to the seafloor.
Behind the wheel
While Statham is frequently featured driving in many of his flicks, from Fast and Furious to The Transporter, the one thing the action hero isn't so good at is driving. According to the DMV in the United Kingdom, he failed his driving test three times as a teen. However, the actor's performance has since improved. A professional race car driver and champion, Damon Hill, even trained him.
