Ronda Rousey shares scary details on how she almost lost a finger while filming FOX show

Ronda Rousey shared a nasty photo today of an injury she suffered recently while filming an episode of the FOX show “9-1-1,” a photo that almost made me throw up all over my apartment.

The former UFC champ and WWE star is lucky that she didn’t lose a finger in this injury, as the photo (which I won’t share because it’s really gross but you can see here if you want) showed the tip of her middle finger barely hanging on.

Just gross. There I was mindlessly scrolling through Instagram when it popped up and almost made me lose my lunch.

Anyways, she shared the details on how it happened and it’s pretty incredible that she didn’t lose part of her finger:

So the word is out I nearly lost my finger shooting @911onfox. Freak accident, first take of the day a boat door fell on my hand, I thought I just jammed my fingers so I finished the take before looking (I know it sounds crazy, but I’m used to live audiences and never showing pain unless I’m supposed to) after a break in the action I told our director the situation and was rushed via ambulance to the hospital where they promptly reattached my bone and tendon with a plate and screws. I returned to filming the next day and finished my scenes before returning home to recover. Modern medicine amazes me, I already had 50% range of motion back in 3 days. There’s so much more than I can write here, stayed tuned via @rondarouseydotcom for the full story. And of course tune in to see how well I can act like my finger didn’t just fall off in this upcoming season of @911onfox.

Ronda Rousey is still tough as nails.

But seriously, I wish I didn’t see that photo.
