10 Insane Movie Facts That Will Blow Your Mind

2. Jim Caviezel Was Struck By Lightning During The Sermon On The Mount Scene - The Passion Of The Christ

Perhaps if this slice of movie trivia had occurred on another movie, it wouldn't have made the list - but all things considered, and given the subject matter of Mel Gibson's controversial picture, the fact that the man playing Jesus was struck by lightning during production is just too bizarre to not bring up.

Even if you're not religiously-inclined, you gotta admit that it's kind of spooky, huh? This is made even more so when you realise that the scene being filmed at the time took place on a mountain top, whilst Jesus is giving the famous "Sermon on the Mount." Of course, you're more likely to get struck by lightning if you're standing on a mountain top, but you can't argue with the trivia value of this insane fact. Strange coincidence, or was God simply hating on Mel Gibson's movie? Seems like his aim was a little off, if so.
