7. Gary Busey
The Behaving Badly actor nearly lost his life after being involved in a horrific motorcycle accident back in 1988. Busey was severely injured after hitting a patch of sand and flipping over his handlebars. He was not wearing a helmet. His skull was fractured, and doctors feared that he had suffered permanent brain damage. He was in a coma for 33 days following the accident. In 2008, when Busey was a patient on Celebrity Rehab, he was referred to a psychiatrist who believed that his 20-year-old brain injury had had a greater effect on him than doctors realized. It seems to have weakened his mental “filters”, causing him to speak and act impulsively.
