You’ve gotta see this one to believe it… but once you do, you’ll immediately want to un-see it, because it’s absolutely horrific!!!!
Ronda Rousey is currently recovering following a gruesome injury sustained on set while filming for the TV show 9-1-1. We guess it was life imitating art, because they def had to call an ambulance for this.
Judging from the pictures, seriously, this injury is BAD — even for someone like Ronda with a UFC background full of cuts and broken bones!!

The former mixed martial arts champ had been filming an emotional scene for the Fox hit on a boat down in Mexico when she was supposed to simply slam a door.
However, on the very first take of the day, sources tell TMZ she got a little over-excited and slammed the door, alright… directly onto the middle and ring finger of her left hand.
Not thinking much of it — this woman is seriously several orders of magnitude tougher than we could ever be — she finished the scene like a champ. Then, when she looked down and realized the end of her finger was about to freakin’ come off, she decided maybe it was time for some medical help and alerted the director.
Um, yeah, we’d say so!!!
This is as much of the image as we’re willing to show btw…
The ferocious cage fighter recalled how everything happened in a Tuesday afternoon Instagram post revealing the story to fans (below):
“So the word is out I nearly lost my finger shooting @911onfox. Freak accident, first take of the day a boat door fell on my hand, I thought I just jammed my fingers so I finished the take before looking (I know it sounds crazy, but I’m used to live audiences and never showing pain unless I’m supposed to) after a break in the action I told our director the situation and was rushed via ambulance to the hospital where they promptly reattached my bone and tendon with a plate and screws.
I returned to filming the next day and finished my scenes before returning home to recover. Modern medicine amazes me, I already had 50% range of motion back in 3 days. There’s so much more than I can write here, stayed tuned via @rondarouseydotcom for the full story. And of course tune in to see how well I can act like my finger didn’t just fall off in this upcoming season of @911onfox”
We honestly don’t know how she can remain so cool under pressure about this!
Our fingers hurt just thinking about what she went through… Severed tendons? A plate and screws?! Not us! Not even a little bit! No thank you, ma’am!!!
