Kaley Cuoco

On September 13, 2010, Cuoco was in a horse-riding accident and suffered a very bad break in her leg. She came out of the saddle, landing on the ground, then her horse stepped on the leg, causing so much damage that at first emergency doctors thought amputation of the foot might be required. She was written out of two episodes of Big Bang (2007) and, for several episodes, was only seen sitting down or behind furniture in an attempt to hide the injury from the audience. Also, in her first appearance following the accident, she was filmed only from waist up, standing behind a bar counter acting as a bartender instead of her usual waitress position..
