20 Things You Didn't Know About Django Unchained
14. Christoph Waltz Fell Off A Horse And Dislocated His Pelvis
As if there weren't enough things to worry about in the Wild West without fearing a fall from your horse. Poor Christoph Waltz suffered a nasty injury during training for Django Unchained when he fell off his nag during training and dislocated his pelvis. Waltz told Conan O'Brien that he was afraid of getting back on a horse after this injury but Jamie Foxx helped ease his worries with a thoughtful gift: "Jamie gave me a saddle with a seatbelt. He really did, he gave me this big beautiful saddle and there was a seatbelt on with a buckle and everything."
Foxx knows a thing or two about horses. He used his own horse, Cheetah, during filming. He revealed his role as an agent for his prize pet in an interview promoting the film: "About four and a half years ago, I got a horse for my birthday and I started riding. My horse is actually the horse I'm riding in the movie."
