“The Three Stooges” have suffered their fair share of injuries on the set of their films, it’s safe to say. In the short film Three Little Pigskins, there is a moment in which they are attacked by some professional football players, which they have to survive. Due of their disinterest in the sequence, the three gentlemen authorized stuntmen to take their places in the production. The majority of the time, though, the trio performed their own stunts. These funny gentlemen were definitely banged around a lot!

A Possible Replacement?

When Curly Howard suffered a stroke, the show’s producers began on a quest for a new host to replace him. Buddhi Hackett, a comedian best known for his roles in the films The Music Man and It’s a mad, mad, mad, mad world, was one of the guests invited to appear on the show, which aired on Fox network. Because of his commitments to his family, he was unable to accept the post. What if Buddy Hacket had been a member of the Three Stooges? It would be a whole different world.
