Ben Affleck’s Champagne Blooper Made The Movie 😂🍾 #pearlharbor #benaffleck #shorts

Did you know this painful blooper was completely unscripted in Pearl Harbor (2001)? In the scene where Rafe McCawley talks with Evelyn Johnson (played by Kate Beckinsale) while sporting a heavily bandaged, bleeding nose, the dialogue about a rogue cork wasn't just clever writing!
During rehearsals, Ben Affleck was opening a bottle of champagne when the cork shot off under pressure and nailed him dead-center in the bridge of the nose. Director Michael Bay thought the mishap was so hilariously fitting for the character's charming clumsiness that he bandaged Affleck up and wrote the real-life accident straight into the movie!
