Jackie also risked his life while filming Raising Dragon. During a stunt, he suffered a fractured skull base when he fell on a rock. Although he recovered from the operation, he lost some of his hearing in his right ear. In 1993, while filming Crime Story, Jackie broke his leg and spent three months in the hospital. He repeated the stunt again after his hospitalization!
