During a recent interview, David Schwimmer recounted a scary moment on the set of "Friends" when his co-star, Matt LeBlanc, dislocated his shoulder. Schwimmer described the incident as "genuinely frightening," recalling how LeBlanc turned white and looked as though he might faint after the injury occurred during a pratfall.
Schwimmer immediately called for the scene to be cut and filming was halted for the night while LeBlanc was taken to the hospital. This incident, previously mentioned in the HBO Max "Friends" reunion, happened during the filming of "The One Where No One’s Ready." LeBlanc was performing a comedic jump over a coffee table for the fourth time when the injury occurred. The producers later incorporated the injury into the storyline of "The One With the Jam."
Schwimmer and LeBlanc starred in the iconic sitcom alongside Jennifer Aniston, Lisa Kudrow, Courteney Cox, and the late Matthew Perry. The cast has remained close, particularly after Perry's passing in October 2023. "Friends," which premiered in 1994, ran for ten seasons and continues to be a beloved show. Jennifer Aniston recently shared anecdotes about the show's premiere and the lasting impact "Friends" has had on audiences worldwide.
