13 Stars Who Had a Close Call with Death

12. Joaquin Phoenix

Joaquin Phoenix is another one of the stars who had a close call with death back in 2006. The Gladiator actor rolled his car off an LA canyon road when his brakes failed. Phoenix says that he was trapped in the car and despite the fact that the car was leaking gas, he went to light up a cigarette. The actor remembers a voice stopping him and then he says someone broke the back of the car’s window and pulled him out. His savior turned out to be famed filmmaker, Werner Herzog. Sadly, Joaquin’s brother Phoenix was not so lucky when it comes to cheating death.
