He said the doctor made a mistake during surgery, causing him to bleed internally and had to perform surgery very quickly to save his life. Arnold called the incident “a disaster”, kept a positive attitude and regularly exercised to recover. At first, he tried to get out of the hospital bed and walk 10 steps. After that, he walked around the nurse stations at the hospital and gradually went farther. Arnold made a full recovery while filming.
