You know what sounds good? Some warm cinnamon rolls. I’m talking about the ones that have cream cheese icing with centers that are just as good as the edges. Okay, enough dreaming. Back to a shootout with Jean Claude Van Damme, who I call JC, because although he has an awesome name, it is a long one 😜. Glad we’re on the same team 🙏🏻. #blackwater #Wednesdays

Big props to all the hard working crew on this film Black Water. Especially the special effects department. So much goes on in an action film…guns, bombs, things blowing up, and of course people getting hurt. This photograph is a behind the scenes shot of what it looks like getting shot in the neck 😱. The tube? Well that’s where the blood is pumped from, tucked in my pants of course. Although the tape ripped off every hair left on my body, the realism on camera is incredible 😜. Here’s to you Effects Dept. #Thankyou #blackwater @jcvd @allanungar
