Sylvester Stallone reveals WWE star Hulk Hogan put three men in hospital on Rocky movie

The 70-year-old actor and director worked with the six-time WWE World Heavyweight Champion back in 1982 during filming for Rocky III.

Hulk Hogan played the role of Rocky rival Thunderlips who ? as viewable in the above video ? wrestles the boxing star at a charity event.

And in a new Instagram status posted by Sly, the shocking details of filming have been revealed.

The post reads: "Another flashback and another reason why it?s not such a great idea to always do your own stunts.

"I met Terry Bollea aka Thunderlips aka Hulk Hogan in the very early 80s when I was directing Rocky III. At 6ft 7ins and 295lbs with 24-inch biceps he was an amazing athlete.

"Incredibly powerful.

"I remember a violent move where he threw me into the corner, charged across the ring like an enraged bull and leaped so amazingly high above me that his shinbone actually came down like a giant tree on my collarbone and I tumbled to the floor.

"I was afraid to look at my shoulder for about 10 minutes ? I said 'don?t roll me over, don?t move me,' because I was sure there was bone protruding through my upper chest.

"Of course there wasn?t but I have never felt such a mind-numbing pain from a massive hit before or since that day.

"Hulk just didn?t know his own strength. Believe it or not when he jumped into the audience to fight with the stuntmen, three of them had to be treated at the hospital.
