Work hazards are inevitable, even in the porn industry. Australian porn star Liam Ellis tells us about a severe injury he suffered on set while filming a hardcore sex scene. Given the location of that injury, we hope it's not too damaging.
Keep reading for the details.
The entertainer spilled the painful detail. He was in the middle of serious action with a woman and another man when his sexual organ slipped out.
"Basically I was having sex at the time... and it slipped out and I was still in motion and I wasn’t lined up."
The 34-year-old explained further that the slip caused his penis to bend and tear, leading to a penile fracture. Even though it didn't hurt then, the damage became evident much later.
"My penis swelled up straight away and after a few hours it went black from bruising."
The Aussie had to undergo emergency surgery to correct the injury and arrest further complications and is currently healing.
Ellis is concerned things may never be the same down there again.
"I'm worried it might be one of those things that once you do it, it might happen again."
He disclosed his plans to be more careful in the bedroom and at work to prevent something like this from happening again and causing permanent damage.
There's, however, a silver lining in the unfortunate situation. Ellis got a free circumcision out of the package. It's something he's always wanted, and he is glad he got it done once and for all.
Before he entered the adult industry, he served over four years behind bars for drug-related offenses. His release birthed a search for a new career path, and he found himself here.
Ellis's injury happened after his colleague Keiran Lee, a famous British porn artist, revealed how Angela White almost died on the set of an intense scene.
The 37-year-old entertainer was rushed to the hospital because she had a ruptured appendix after shooting an hour-long sex scene in 2013.
"I put her into hospital and this was actually not on purpose, we were shooting content and… we were going at it for over an hour. After that, I'm like see you sweetheart, lovely day he recalled on a podcast last week."
Lee's nine-and-a-half-inch penis is insured for a whopping $1 million, and when he was asked if the size of his manhood was to blame for the incident, he said.
"I don't know. But listen, I could have killed Angela White on our first scene."
The actor continued on the podcast that he discovered two days later that she'd returned back to Australia and complained of stomach pain.
"...apparently her appendix burst in the scene, which could have killed her."
White spoke about the near-fatal incident briefly in a tweet in 2016.
She revealed that surgeons had extracted her appendix via her belly button. We can imagine how excruciating that must have been for her.
White continued.
"They had to make an incision above my pubic bone and at my hip. The scarring was minimal and the recovery was pretty fast (I did a porn expo 4 days after surgery)."
The 34-year-old began selling drugs to pay off his tax debt and even formed a gang from the business.
Ellis said he has had sex with hundreds of females and has lost count. He's out of the game for the next month or two following his injury.
Ellis added that he had enjoyed his new job, which he got after working briefly in the offshore oil and gas industry, and that there's more money in the adult industry than in oil.
"I really love acting and seeing a script come to life."
Lee revealed on the podcast that White got her revenge after her burst appendix in a subsequent scene, leaving him with the most painful experience of his time in the industry.
The performer was terribly injured after White suffered from lockjaw and accidentally bit down on Lee's testicles.
