Joey Accidentally Dislocated His Shoulder on Set
None of the cast members were professional stunt people, so if a more dangerous scene had been involved, they would have used stunt doubles to ensure everyone's safety. However, during one episode, Matt Le Blanc suffered an unexpected injury when he dislocated his shoulder. It happened during the filming of Season 3's 'The One Where No One's Ready' when Le Blanc tripped and fell badly, forcing him to make a sudden hospital visit.
Because of Le Blanc's shoulder injury, he needed to wear an arm sling for a few episodes of season 3. At least it wasn't a major injury.
