During the filming of the first installment of Hunger Games, Josh Hutcherson revealed Jennifer Lawrence accidentally knocked him out while showing her air kicks.

In a throwback interview with Yahoo Entertainment, the Beekeeper star said he was left with a brief concussion after his co-star's stunt went wrong on him.

“She was being a real show-off, thinking that she was Jackie Chan or something,” the 31-year-old shared.

“[She was] throwing these air kicks and was like, ‘Josh, I can kick over your head!’ And then crack! She clipped me in the temple. … I don’t really remember, because I got knocked out.”

However, Jennifer, he said, felt extremely guilty, “She was crying. She felt terrible. I woke up with her [crying], laying over me.”

But, Josh is not the only one facing injuries on the set of the Hunger Games

The Oscar previously told Empire she went deaf for a week after facing an injury in her ear while shooting the second installment of the franchise.

“First, I had to jump into stagnant water for a stunt, which caused a double ear infection. Then I had to jump into water jets, and one jet went into my ear, making a ‘PSHYOOOOOV!’ noise, which made me deaf for a week. But I didn’t go to the doctor…because I’m a genius," she continued.

Noting, “So I eventually got my hearing back, and now I get this tearing noise every time I yawn.”

“I really should go back to the doctor and ask them what that means. ‘Tell me, is this normal? I’m in pain 24/7. Help me,'" Jennifer added.
