He didn't sue, which was stupid. This was an easily preventable issue, with only the most basic sense of responsibility. The director of that show should have been fired, prosecuted, and sued. So should the school.

He has numbness in his leg to this day. He has a permanent injury due to incompetence and neglect by a wealthy University. THIS is exactly what lawsuits are for.

I have no recollection of the journey to the hospital. My clearest memory is being face down in a hospital bed, surrounded by doctors and nurses. I remember going into an MRI scan and giggling as they removed my nipple piercings. Looking back, it was clear I was in shock. It turns out the blade had gone 7.8cm deep in my back. It had partially severed a nerve in my spinal cord and missed my aorta by about a centimetre.

Dude, I refuse to accept that these are real people. Wanna know why? Every fake knife I've ever used on stage, I've tried to stab myself with. It's fun to push the knife into the handle, or bend the rubber blade.

I'd be looking for a murder charge, personally.

This is peak drama kid. Why would it have to be sharp?

Did the other actor really not realise they actually stabbed the person? I can assume actually stabbing someone would feel a little different than fake stabbing someone
