Breaking Bad actor Raymond Cruz (who played Tuco Salamanca) has corrected a story by actor Aaron Paul regarding a fight scene in the hit show.Paul, who played Jesse Pinkman in the show, claimed he was knocked out by Cruz in filming, something Cruz denies.In the show, there was an intense fight scene between the pair in the second episode of season two, Grilled. In the scene, Aaron’s character Jesse is thrown through a door.After filming completed, Paul claimed he was knocked half unconscious.
Paul went on to say that Raymond thought he was acting before medics intervened. Speaking to The Mirror, however, Cruz says things played out differently.Cruz explained: “It’s kind of accurate but not quite because Aaron suffered a concussion at the beginning of the scene and you can see it on film.
He gets thrown through a screen door and he catches the screen door on his arm because instead of crossing his arms when he hit the door, he had them open and caught the screen door and lifted it off its hinges.”Raymond continued: “I’m actually the one who stopped it. You can see in the scene, he stood up and I thought he was really there but once we got through the wall, I stopped it and I said, ‘Um, he’s not there’.“The guy suffered a blow to the head and it was from the screen door.
And you can see it because it’s the actual scene that they used in the film. It’s a crazy take because it’s so violent, the door ripped off its hinges.
