Call it the meniscus tear heard around the world.

How costly wouldSpectres overruns be?

And just how badly was the star really injured?

It could have happened to me getting out the shower.

Its one of those injuries, Craig says now with a dismissive wave.

I hit it at the wrong angle and it just went.

So, um, what exactly was being filmed when the knee gave way?

Dave Bautista was picking me up and throwing me!

So I wasnt getting out of the shower.

We were going at it 100 percent.

Very physical, Bautista recalls.

There was a small, little indentation in the floor.

His foot just slipped off it and tweaked and his knee collapsed in.

It was that fast he snaps his fingers It was torn.

Ive injured myself many times, says Craig.

The amazing thing was, it didnt need it.

It slowed me down.

I couldnt run without pounding pain.

So I took two weeks off, had the surgery and got back to work.

He insists the hiatus was actually a blessing in disguise: Everybody agreed it helped the movie immeasurably.

Id recommend any movie doing it.

It really slowed me down, which is good.

Because I tend to go at this at like 100 miles per hour.

Once production resumed, however, reshoots for that fight scene resulted in more bloodshed.

Theres one part where Daniel lands a punch, and you just heard it, Bautista says.

My nose just spattered blood.

Im grabbing it, trying to feel it, the suits completely ruined.

Daniel goes, Oh my God, I broke his nose!

(For the record, it wasnt broken.)

Wear and tear comes with the job, Powell says.

Bonds are always like this.

You just never hear about it.

This time, we got more publicity.
