Anthony Anderson revealed he was recently sent to the emergency room following a "movie set fight gone wrong."
Fortunately, the Grown-ish star appeared to be in relatively good health as he recounted the incident that landed him in the hospital overnight in a post shared to his Instagram grid on Thursday, Feb. 1.
"I spent the night in the emergency room. Movie set fight gone wrong. Me against two goons and a chair! Guess who didn’t win! Who needs a stuntman? Me that’s who!" the 53-year-old joked alongside a photo of himself stretched out on a gurney and holding up a peace sign.
"CT scan and X-rays showed nothing fractured or broken in my back just a deep contusion," he explained.
"That chair will never be the same though!" the comedian continued, "Bloodied and bowed but never broken!"
Anderson also added a few hashtags, including "#setlife" and "#G20," suggesting that his injury occurred while on the set of the upcoming action-thriller, G20.
The award-winning actor later followed up with a second image and more details about the accident. "This is the chair that whooped my a-- last night!" he wrote in a subsequent caption, tagging the location as Cape Town, South Africa.
"Something about it is menacing! It sucker punched me in the kidneys and back with no mercy! When I got on set today it was grinning at me! Little does he know I got something for that a--! He gone learn today!"
Fans and fellow Hollywood stars were happy to learn that Anderson wasn't seriously injured, but still, they took a few moments to issue what they felt were dire warnings directed at his safety.
"@anthonyanderson you are not made of rubber," fellow black-ish alum Tracee Ellis Ross wrote in response to Anderson's first upload. "Im so glad you are ok."
"Damn Anthony!! You know better!!! I’m call your mama!!!" quipped Act Your Age actress Kym Whitley.
