    TIL that Bruce Willis is partially deaf in his left ear due to some of the loud explosions and gunfire while filming Die Hard. “Due to an accident on the first Die Hard, I suffer two-thirds partial hearing loss in my left ear and have a tendency to say, ‘Whaaa?’” Willis said.

    SERIOUSLY???? I actually wondered that when I saw the rattlesnake swimming, but I convinced myself that it was not possible because I don't want it to be

    Snakes don't want to be in the water unless they are water snakes. It's usually to cold.
