Dolph "Drago" Lundgren almost beat Stallone to death !!!

[Bluto]

"the worst was in ROCKY IV. In the first round, I thought these two characters should hate each other so much that they should just attack each other like pit dogs… professionalism be damned. So what you see in the first twenty seconds is real, and after the third take of taking body blows, I felt a burning in my chest, but ignored it. Later that night I couldn’t breathe very well, and they took me to the emergency room. My blood pressure was 200+, and the next thing I knew I was on a low-altitude flight from Canada to St. John’s Hospital in Santa Monica, and there I resided in intensive care for eight days. What had happened is he struck me so hard in the chest that my heart slammed against my breastbone and began to swell, so the beating became labored, and without medical attention the heart would’ve continued to swell until it stopped. Many people that have car accidents die like this when the steering wheel slams into their chest. So in a sense I was hit by “a streetcar named Drago.” - Sylvester Stallone

No kiddin' rooster, Lundgren could break your spine in half just by snapping his fingers...

Where did you find this quote?  I have been involved in NHB fighting and boxing for over 10 yrs and never heard of such a thing.  Not that its impossible...but very hard to believe that explanation.  Breaking your ribs, sternal bone, or cartilage would happen first.

it's from a ask sly section on aintitcool.com

A funny part of that Q&A on aint-it-cool.com was when a member asked Stallone a question about who would win in a fight in real life between all of the characters, the member said that on some show Carl Weathers (Apollo) said it would be first Mr T, then himself, then Lundgren, then Stallone.  Dolph Lundgren was a champion in martial arts way before Rocky IV, so I find that kinda funny.  Even funnier is Stallone's answer to the question: "Dolph, me, Mr. T, Paulie, then Apollo."
