Actor Daniel Hoevels slit his throat on stage after a fake knife was swapped for a real one
As actor Daniel Hoevels slumped to the stage, blood gushing from his neck, the audience broke into a rapturous ovation. But little did they know that the actor's stunningly realistic suicidal scene finale had little to do with his acting talents or clever special effects. He had actually slit his throat after the fake blade that he was meant to use to 'kill' himself had been swapped for a real one. The audience were still clapping as he collapsed to the boards, trying to stop the blood flow with his hands.
