Christian Bale’s Near Death Experience On Set Of Batman

 

Batman star Christian Bale avoided death on the set of The Dark Knight, when a plunging helicopter missed him by just feet.

He didn’t realize how close he had come to being decapitated on location at Chicago’s Sears Tower, until he noticed the shocked expressions on the faces of crew members.  He told Details magazine:

 ”I’ve been in situations where things could have gone very wrong. I saw a number of very anxious faces on The Dark Knight when a helicopter came incredibly close to me. I was standing on the corner of the Sears Tower, on the outside 110 stories up. I felt quite oblivious to it. I was looking at the face of the pilot and just hanging there, not fully aware that the blades were actually just feet away from my head.”
